vim+cscope. It's got a small learning curve that is easily alleviated with a cheat sheet and has the benefit of not requiring mousing. To really appreciate the benefits of vim/emacs you have to see someone really proficient in doing the taks with that editor at work. It works both ways. Are IDEs easier to plod through than vim? yes. -- Hans Fugal ; http://hans.fugal.net There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself. -- Johann Sebastian Bach
