I can't speak for others, but I consider myself a fairly competent programmer (I recently released a book on Internet E-mail protocols and standards, and am currently writing a high end secure server). When programming in NT, I use Visual Studio 6 (straight C for server stuff, C++/MFC for GUI stuff). When programming in FreeBSD, I use micro-emacs (not Gnu-Emacs), gcc, gmake, and the Gnu debugger. I find I can be about as productive in either environment. Use of command line tools makes it easy to do work over telnet - really don't like X/Motif, etc. But then I'm a bit of a dinosaur - I graduated in 1973, and cut my teeth on CDC mainframes. In the days before word processors, if you were a writer, the specific typewriter you used didn't make a lot of difference in the quality or quantity of your writing - most of the writing takes place in the mind. The same is true of programming tools. A really nice IDE can improve your productivity to some extent, but it will not make a hack into a great programmer. -----Original Message----- From: Andrey M.

Is There in FreeBSD any environment for programming (something like C++Builder for Windowzzz)? I don`t think what real good programmers in FreeBSD write their programms in simple redactors (vi/ed), but what they use? Help me, plz! Best regards, Andrey M. Fedorov. :) mailto:andre@kolasc.net.ru ICQ#10757187 _________________________________________________________________________ ___ ___ _______ _______ ________ __ _______ / / / // ____// ____/ / ___ / / \ / ____/ / /_ / // /___ / / / /__/ /_/ _\ \__/ /___ ¿ ¿ ¥¨¥¨ ¥¨¥¨ / _ / /___ // / / ____ __ _____ / · · ¡«®¡ ¡«®¡ / / \ \_____/ // /____ / /\ \ / / \ \__/ / º º º º º º /__/ \__\______//_______/ /__/ \__\ \_/ /_\_/____/ R u s s i a, M u r m a n s k r e g i o n, A p a t i t y. <A HREFF="http://www.kolasc.net.ru">www.kolasc.net.ru<\A> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
