Being that I no longer use Windos (and not really interested in the Wine project), what would be some recommended IDEs to learn/relearn with? If it matters, I'm running FBSD 4.10 and I don't plan on upgrading to 5.x on this box (Perhaps when I get another machine, but that's another story). What _does_ matter to me is the bells-and-whistles type of environments/applications (What can I say... The gravy helps them taters go down. :) ). That said, I have both the KDE and GNOME environments installed. I'm also interested in IDEs for Python, Perl, Ruby and Java. Of course I'm going to start with one at a time, but I'm interested in what people's recommendations are on the IDEs in the ports. So, what say ye? Thanks, Mike
