Hello, On Linux-PC: I am using usually just shell (gnome terminal) with multiple tabs, do all compiling stuff there (scratchbox tab), and usually KDE's Kate editor on another virtual screen. Works pretty fast to me and I haven't really needed IDE so far. I have been a fan of Ultraedit (for Windows) longer time ago (when I was making software for network elements) and the Kate editor has been quite ok replacement for it, not as nice as Ultraedit (Kate lacks hundreds of features that are present in Ultraedit but still has the most essential set of them), but nearly and the user interface is quite similar that I have used to and it integrates well to Gnome, KDE or Xfce desktops. If I need to edit something quickly (like changelog), then I just launch nano.
And of course it is handy to have devhelp around to check API reference. And finally but not least, of course, web browser, to google code examples. And of course also a tab that has python open, I use it as calculator (when I don't have my HP48GX close at hand or it has batteries run out). Ok, nearly forgot, at home, our new kitten that walks on the keyboard and contributes noise to the code occasionally plus makes scratches to 770 screens (already did one little scratch unfortunately, fortunately it was not the 770 that is my own (my precisious, my treasure :), but one of those owned by Nokia :) )... At home I occasionally actually use Emacs, because Kate (the person, not the editor) prefers to use it and if I come to hack with the same machine, then I am too lazy to launch my own preferred editor and just do the changes with Emacs. Anyway, I prefer to use terminal for doing compiling.
