Developing environments used for kernel development

I had heard about emacs server, but never tried it.. This should fix the
starting time, but not the learning curve :)

I was thinking about back to vim, it starts so fast and has everything
you

need in tree letters, and the completion works out of box.
If you are bothered by slow start of emacs, you can look at emacsdaemon.
You start emacs only once, afterwards just connect to started emacs
session.

I never get the
completion really working with emacs. I remember that was coding with Lua
headers and the completion crashed :( I just give up on it, who needs
auto

completion..

I'll give vim a second chance :)

Hi Daniel,

My boss came to my desk today raiging that I should use more
productive

tools for developing. Well I don't want to begin an editor war but,
yes,

I

use emacs. I used to use vim before but the integration of emacs and
gdb

has caught my attention.
emacs and vim are both very powerful editors, each with their own pros
and cons, but both very suitable for developing code!
I don't think it's a good idea for a boss to force his devs into using
some GUI IDE like Eclipse.
Personally, I don't like it because it is slow (Hi Java!) and does too
much

stuff which I do not need when writing and debugging non-Java code.

If you are already used to Emacs and gdb mode, that's great.

Recently I am more and more using (g)vim and discovered a nice vim
plugin:

NERDTree https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree (A tree explorer

Oh and there is also cgdb: https://github.com/cgdb/cgdb
