Just when I was about to conclude that there would never be a Net Beans or Eclipse for C# development on Windows (not mono), I learn about #develop (pronounced "sharp develop"). Why would anyone care? Well, an install of Visual Studio .NET 2002 requires 3 GB of space on your hard drive. That's not something you can afford on a laptop that is several years old!
I do pretty well using emacs to edit code. But for debugging, command line tools are not productive. I'm a step-through-the-code kind of guy. I'm definitely not a debug-by-print-statement kind of guy. If only I could just write bug-free code, I wouldn't need to worry about debugging!
