People chose vim vs emacs for non-language specific reasons (for example: number of attached hands).Īlso this is a really lame question. Epic as an IDE for Perl language is widely known for its rich features and free extensibility.
There may be a more modern implementation somewhere. Using the linked extension it is possible to get autocompletion, however the file is out of date and has only been updated up to Love 0.8.0. Outside specific editor features designed with a specific language in mind, or tools which require a specific editor, I don't think anything drives someone to use one generic editor over another one of similar capability. Another free text editor that can be extended to support Lua and Love development. These are relatively closed stacks and have purpose built (and pretty decent) tools to work with them, so most people do.Īnd then some languages (scripting languages, c/c++) are edited commonly with just about everything.
#SCITE VS ECLIPSE CODE#
You can code java in vim if you want to, but working on a large java project with vim is probably not a common practice (I'm sure several counter-examples will be provided below).Īpple is probably the king of the designated editor group, with microsoft coming in at a close second. I've been using OpenGrok recently on some fairly heavy source code colletions (glibc & the linux kernel to name a few, although in total I probably have upwards of 30m loc indexed) and it performs very nicely. Some languages (like java) are almost unusable without one of several popular editors, which deal with a lot of the boilerplate and let you navigate around the kind of "a million small pieces" type code you get with java. Some editors are more useful or even custom tailored for specific languages or functional areas, and naturally people who use those languages or work in those areas tend to gravitate towards them.
