Programmers, present your IDEs

I'm slowly getting quite tired of both the bugs and general slowness of the IDEs I use for work; these being Eclipse and Netbeans.

- Eclipse is fine for most things, can be slow at times and crash randomly.
- Netbeans crashes a lot when using it for PHP, and is always quite slow.

So, what works for you?
Any other full-featured IDEs to recommend?

jeah, i also use vim all the time.
i used alot other things like eclipse, kdevelop (which is also nice) , geany, ..., ..., ...

but everytime i missed the nice little features which makes vim MUCH more powerfull then all the gui ide's.

editing is much more easier. you have also autocompletion, tabs, splitting windows, sessions, marks ............................................................... . and all the nice commands. like cw at the beginning of a word delete the word and enters the insert mode. w jumps to the next word b to the previeus, 3w jumps to ther third next word... ... and 3 million other nice things :)

i love it!

Mark another vote for Vim. As an old Unix guy the only way you could get me to stop using VI is to pry it from my cold dead fingers. :wink:

I'm a die-hard Netbeans user, but...

6.0 still has a few bugs which I'm hoping will be ironed out in 6.0.1 (specifically, the feckin debugger doesn't work correctly under Java 1.6.0_04 :?) Despite that, the improvements in 6.0 far, far outweigh the early teething problems.

I must admit that Netbeans, for Java programming, on a fast machine with loads of RAM is indeed a very nice environment.

For everyday web development though I've gone back to using Eclipse, with PDT and Subclipse plugins.
