I'm referring to IDEs and refactoring tools. I now know a large number
of people, even people who used to be Emacs enthusiasts and would
otherwise prefer to continue using Emacs, who use such tools because
they are simply to convenient. They reduce their work load too much,
make it much easier to produce software they need to write at higher
speed.
