Well, I have been all over the place on IDE’s and editors, and I am coming back full circle to Vim. It’s been around forever but seems to keep getting the love. After spending a good part of the morning ramping up my Vim setup after reading http://nvie.com/posts/how-i-boosted-my-vim/ I am all kinds of excited to try some of the new plugins I have installed.
Also, though I have had a good time working with Komodo Edit, and NetBeans I find I am still a lot more comfortable, and faster, in Vim. Also, used in conjunction with code snippet software, and some other speed up tips found in http://net.tutsplus.com/articles/general/9-ways-to-instantly-code-faster/ I am virtually flying when I actually do get to the point where I am coding.
This is just an image of my vim setup looking at a Drupal module, bookmarks, and file tree (NERDTree) all visible, with Monaco as the font, and ir_black as the colorscheme. This is on Ubuntu, however MacVim looks pretty identical.
Pretty soon here I will make a blog post about how use Vim, and how I got this setup, along with my .vimrc file and .vim directory.
