Hi list, One of the key separations between the "(wo)men" and "boys(girls)" when it comes to coding seems to be the tools one uses. I'm interested, specifically, in text editors. I remember firs finding out, around the age of 8, that computers were programmed in nothing more complicated than a text file. Now, I would shortly come to understand the exact complexities involved in that abstraction, but the statement is still mostly true. The question I have for y'all is: How do YOU code? There's such a wide range of tools out there, from texteditir, notepad, vi.. to IDE's like Eclipse and Xcode. What software do you use to write your code? --Just to be clear, I'm not asking for a recommendation, but I am hoping that the thread will help to open up options for myself and others. Just to start the ball rolling: I use TextWrangler on a mac, notepad++ on Windows, and usually nano on Linux. I'd be really interested in a programmers text editor with syntax highlighting, etc on Linux though.
