Re:XMonad as IDE by snippyhollow on Friday June 18, 2010 @09:40AM (#1442164)
I really begin to like suckless (and tried wmii in the past)! I don't think that's about the fact that I discovered the awesome (ahah) of tiling WMs but about the fact that: 1) it creates an isolation bubble in the middle of my current WM/setup. 2) I'm now way better at using Vim than I was back in the days. 3) while hacking (a little) XMonad (or dwm or awesome or...), one can quickly create a light IDE to work in, just adding the very few missing features to my "no mouse, Vim centric" development environment.

(Did I mentioned I can't bother using Eclipse/Netbeans/VS? Now I did.)

But I still need a classic WM for some tasks (unfortunately).
