I dislike having to drop to a command line when a perfectly good GUI exists that makes the whole edit, compile, debug phase work with one click of a button (just click debug with an edited file and it will save it, compile it, and then start debugging)
VS2005 support is in development, but not finished yet. However, I was wondering what you meant about using the command line, as I imagine you're aware that VC6 projects can be opened in VC2005. I've been opening the VC6 projects in VS7.1 and VS8 in order to build WebCore, and it works just fine for me. Or does doing so somehow disable features in the IDE that I haven't run across yet?
Thanks,

It does spit out a project with all the files, etc., but there's a lot of features still missing from it, so it can't be used as-is. A fairly good Python hacker familiar with the XCode2 project format might be able to whip something up without too much time, though.

Yes, I know, I've written scripts to lipo wxWidgets together because the wxPython build system is autoconf-based. ;-) When the XCode2 backend for Bakefile is finished, though, we may be able to use that instead.
Thanks,
