Nice IDEs for Linux and Windows?

[Ingemar]

One more thing: What if I want an IDE where I can comfortably (or somewhat comfortably) mix languages? Like, C and FPC?

What if I want an IDE...

You should write it by your self

I'm quite into VIM actually, but that's not an IDE. When you use VIM, you trade comfort for high availability and flexibility. You can use it anywhere, in any shell or operating system, for any language/task. The harder part is to customize it to your needs. There are some nice plugins for it so it can do a lot of things IDE's can. However, VIM is not some easy tool. It takes serious effort to get familiar with it.

For "pascal" development, I still use lazarus.

I guess so, but I am a little bit tired of spending a lot of time writing tools that nobody else needs, and there should be a whole lot of alternatives for Windows.

and there should be a whole lot of alternatives for Windows.

The only alternative which I can remember for FPC is FPCShell, but it dead as Dev-Pascal and without source code... Comfortable IDE's for different languages with debugger and with Pascal support is something unreal unfortunately. Oh, also there is an scary MSEIde

but I am a little bit tired of spending a lot of time writing tools that nobody else needs

Pascal development world is so hardcore, yeah...

I thought you were using a mac ?

In the time it would take to write one you could figure out how to install Lazarus. problem solved.

I am using Macs, but I have cross-platform needs too.

I know that it takes time to write my own (I already have, for the Mac) but surely Lazarus wouldn't help me with my cross-language needs? (In contract to cross-platform.)

[Carver413]

well I understand the cross language problem. I would have a very difficult time if I had to program in another language.and secretly I dream of a much different lazarus then what is offered today.but until then it is the best that is out there for working with fpc.
