The only reason that I've tried Eclipse is for the debugger, which I can't figure out anyway, since I can't seem to get my projects that I've already started in Vim to play nice with Eclipse. I'm sure that Eclipse is very powerful, but for me the learning curve going from never moving my hands from the keyboard to finding what tool is in what menu is to expensive during the middle of a semester. -- Alex Esplin /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
