As a netbeans user but vim fanatic. I really like netbeans for project management, but vim is awesome for just manipulating text tons faster than you can with netbeans. Try the jVi plugin for netbeans to get that text editing power of vim with the project management features of netbeans.


In my line of duty, most of the time spent in reading code, not writing code.

Even when we were building version 1.0 of the software, there aren't too many text editing as opposed to navigating the code tree.

Isn't dynamic/scripting languages like Ruby and Python produced way less code than Java? (Hence, less typing again).

So this is why I don't quite get the group of people that swear by vim.
