Re: Do developers use vim exclusively or alternate with an IDE?

I have been trying hard to use vim wherever possible, but while I enjoy using it when I know what I am doing, sometimes it's just quicker to use a mouse. Does this feeling of frustration ever go away? I would like to note that I alternate between HTML, CSS, C#, Python and Php. I am on windows.

I personally use Vim to _edit_ and read my code.

When I want code completion, usually Eclipse (or some other IDE) will have better code completion.

So I will flip back to Eclipse (it will automatically reload the file), I will code complete.  Then flip back to Vim (which will prompt to reload the file) and continue editing.  Just a quick ALT-TAB away, I find this works great for my usage.  I am still in Vim 95% of the time, just the way I like it.

HTH,
