I have been rocking Vim since I was a kid (actually, i started with Vi) and I am having a hard time moving away from it. I know there are other more modern editors that could be better, but I have spent so much time with Vim it has become almost an extension of myself.

Geany is nice.

>>52582460
Vim for C dev and Sublime 3 for Python

>>52582460

Sublime Text 3
The UI is fantastic, its performant and quite efficient with memory too.

And unlike text editors build on meme cancer technologies it can open a 2Gb SQL dump without shitting the bed.

VS Code

Sublime Text and TextMate 2.

Atom and Brackets aren't even considerations because they're turbobloated shit. 220MB of disk space and 270MB of RAM usage from a cold start with only an empty document open? Yeah no, fuck that shit. Sublime and Textmate do everything Atom and Brackets do while being far faster and requiring 1/7th of the space and 1/5th of the memory.

Only emacs can be considered a text editor; everything else is merely a toy

>>52582460
notepad.exe in wine

I really, really want to like Atom but it's slow as shit. If it ran better, it would be almost like Emacs with a modern UI and CoffeeScript instead of Elisp. But, it runs like crap so I just use Emacs.

I've taken a liking to gVim with airline + YouCompleteMe.

Sublime Text 3

Checked out Visual Studio Code, but I won't switch to it unless it gets tabs

>>52582825
you're a retard, emacs does everything except editing text.

vim is a proper text editor, emacs is some kind of weird way to reinvent the rest of your operating system in lisp.

I'm not entirely convinced Atom's problem is Electron. Visual Studio Code is also built on Electron, and it runs a lot better than Atom. I think Atom is just straight up unoptimized.

Nah. Maybe spacemacs but the "modern editors" are absolute hipster trash for people that judge programs for 90% on how it looks..

wow

/g/ really is morons

>>52583119
I mean like autocompletion and syntax. Are there any advantages? Like in atom, you only have to press parentheses or quotes once to get both, which makes it slightly faster. I meant like perks other than being based on a web browser.

>>52582460
GNU Emacs

>>52583119
what are the advantages of Kate for someone who doesn't use any Electron-based garbage?

emacs + evil

vim

>>52583154
>>52583168
Haven't used it much (don't quite like KDE), but it's similar to Notepad++

It also has extensions (The bracket complete one being enabled by default)

It also looks nice in KDE, since it's made by the KDE team

>>52582460
emacs
and writing my own cuz why not?

>>52583129
>more chromium-based shit
what's with the proliferation of this trash? do web monkeys outnumber real desktop software devs that badly?

>>52583278
Because it's simple to to use/program with

Google Docs because it's cross platform and syncs to the cloud

>>52582460
Vim. The extension language is absolute shit, but Vim combines the god-tier controls of vi with a few really important additions, like being able to delete previously entered text, syntax highlighting, relative line numbers, etc, and it's available everywhere.

>>52583153
It took you this long to realize this? Leave now, there's nothing of value in this entire board.

so is python and ruby. more so I'd argue because there's no inane bullshit like HTML and the DOM to have to contend with.

Save to .py/.rb file -> run .py/.rb file. Done. How the fuck is that hard?

I can understand people not jumping on C-family stuff right out the gate but only learning JS and never advancing past it is both stupid and depressing. Do they have any clue how badly they're squandering their own potential?

Emacs, mg for quick edits

>>52583409

In the case of Notepad++ the developer did. He said that he didn't want French who voted for FN using his software in the release notes.

>>52583533
because GNU Emacs exists

>>52583530
A lot of people these days seem to have difficulty separating a person from their product. Ok, so Dude X was a demonstrably bad person. This probably means that I dislike Dude X, but if Dude X happened to create an amazing tool, it's not going to stop me from benefiting from said tool because that's idiotic. As human beings we're capable of taking the good from situations as we leave behind that bad. Let's start doing that.

>>52583530
>wants you to uninstall his software because you voted for something he doesn't like

he's a retard who supports censorship and his retardness shows in his software anyway, why the hell would he block encoding in hex mode and force UTF-16 BE? needless to say the hex mode looks like shit too.

>>52583578
That's unfortunate, though he's not forcing you to uninstall it or not use it. He still gives you more rights than Microsoft does, and he won't pursue legal action against FN voters, because he can't. You're not forced to see the release notes.

He hasn't changed any part of the program itself other than some help text maybe, in order to put a political message. This is no different to the Vim guy putting his Uganda stuff when you start it.

>>52583597
I agree.

>>52583604
I have no idea about the quality of the software itself, nor do I care (as I said) about the guy's opinions. I'm just glad he's released his program as free software.

>>52583639
>What exactly is wrong with it?
It's shows that you can't satisfy your wife enough, so she has to find a another mate

>>52583660
That's likely, but not implied. If you're okay with your wife doing that, and the wife wants to do it - the only consequence is that someone's gonna be upset (maybe). That's their business not mine.

>>52583278
>do web monkeys outnumber real desktop software devs that badly?

Answer is no. However, lots of kids are "learning how to program" and they start by doing JS and Node and similar shit. As they haven't learned proper computer engineering and programming, they think that JS/Node/Whatever is great. They're kids, so they think they should remake everything that they're using with their superior technology. And, as what is "hip" now is webdev, they do *everything* based on web. Real devs have better things to do than creating new editors than do not add anything new to the scene except being written in fancy crap languages.

>>52583858
I already stated that I have no problem with it. Stop being obtuse.

>>52583965
Obviously you have, because if you didn't you'd accept it for what it is - the best sexual experience.

Yet you think that us cucks are just low life that don't deserve any recognition, right?

>>52583990
I have not tried it myself, and I do not want to. It may be the best sexual experience, but it's just not for me. That does not make me a bigot, nor prejudiced against people who are into cuckoldry.

That's not what I think at all.

>>52583910
I feel like lack of education isn't a good excuse for being a JS proponent. I haven't had a single day of traditional CS or SE education and yet I make a living writing C-family languages (no, not C#, but C, C++, and Objective-C).

My theory is that developers who never move beyond JS are just lazy assholes who can't be arsed to learn anything more.

>>52584022
>and I do not want to
so you do have something against it

>>52584033
No, not at all. It's equivalent to me saying I don't want to try vanilla ice cream, though I support the right for people to enjoy it if they so wish.

>>52584057
I mean, obviously you have something against it, if you're so resistant to trying it

IDEs for Java/C++/C
Vim for pretty much anything else

>>52584074
No, I don't have anything against it. There's a difference between having a taste for something and supporting it.

I support the right for people to have free speech, though I wouldn't say anti-Semitic, racist etc. messages myself.

>>52584026
Of course, but not all of them are lazy. Some just are sheeps and read and follow nuthead JS proponents, that crappily argument how JS is better and they believe it because they don't have any knowledge apart from the one biased for JS.

>>52584103

>>52584092

>>52584162
Dunno about him, but I use CLion

>>52584162
Mixture of Visual Studio, Netbeans, and CodeBlocks

>>52583859
I sort of did the opposite. When I had learned the basics I started reading about a lot of plugins and installed everything I liked. Then after a while I went trough my vimrc and removed the ones I wasn't using.

Also, Neovim is very usable now. I've been using it daily for months both at home and work, and I never had it crash.

Now I use airline, easymotion, supertab, taglist and neomake.

For learning, the book "Practical Vim" has been very helpful for me. I keep it on the living room table and read a few tips every time there is a commercial break when I watch TV.

>>52584265

>>52582460
Emacs. I don't understand how some people take pride in using proprietary trash. If you work in IT you're going to spends countless hours working with a text editor so you should invest in customizing and learning every detail of a powerful one. After you spent that much time, you can't be dependent on some company that can discontinue your tool for some stupid commercial reason. What are Sublime fags going to now that their editor is abandonware?

>>52583845
see >>52583859

You might have been conditioned by Reddit to load every new program up with as many stupid plugins and extensions as possible. Use vanilla Vim at least until you've learned the controls, and if you find yourself missing something, then maybe try a plugin.
