It will miscolour bad code. But unfortunately it will also miscolor code that does not conform to java code naming idioms. Apparently with the latest JDE (Java Dev Environment for Emacs) this will work but I don't use it and turn of all those features ;) It also has all the nice code completion features but again I turn them off so I don't know how good they are ;) >I could give up > a lot of features of IDEs but not syntax checking and > also the ability to have the code "parsed" and > organized so that I can jump directly to what I want, you mean a project window that allows you to jump to a class or a method/variable in class.

In theory if I was to enable most of the things in emacs I could get most of the kool features from IDEA - except for the surround refactorings. Unfortunately it is so painful to configure (even having used emacs for 5 years or so) I never got around to doing it ;) > > Eric Medlock > > --- Peter Donald wrote: > > On Thu, 15 Nov 2001 04:11, Eric Medlock wrote: > > > Is there a favorite Java IDE amoung you folks? > > > > Emacs !!!! ;) > > > > Though I have recently begun using IDEA almost > > exclusively at work and think > > it is great.
