I just code in Notepad++. I make an error, I fix it. It doesn't work, I just dump variables to see what I did wrong and where.

All of those are things that have happened to me (except an IDE that could not handle externally edited files). They are very rare occurrences, but still annoying when I have to get something done.

Meanwhile: vim and Emacs users, constantly installing and configuring plugins to emulate a fraction of the power of IDEs, go "just use vim/Emacs".

I swear to God if it is what I think it is, I'm going to jump into fucking traffic carrying as many baby ducks as I can.

I only use nerdtree, and bind some scripts to F-keys. Haven't updated in a couple years, just works.

So, you've never actually used Emacs?

And possibly also never used vi either?

I really never understood what benefits an IDE has over Notepad++, they take up SOOOO much drive space for me when all i want to do is make a mod to someone elses file..
