I'm very happy with Eclipse, and I was for a long time happy with  
XCode after previously being happy with Symbolics and MCL and Emacs  
and Think C.

The version I use is the latest J2EE Eclipse and I've never loaded any  
extensions. I've customized the code format, code cleanup and save  
actions but very little else because it does have far too many options.
