Currently, my job is to do Java programming. I use Emacs and JDEE
(and CEDET, which is required by JDEE) for this.
I use Gnus for mail and news reading.
I use CPerl mode for Perl programming, when I need to hack Perl.
I use AUCTeX for LaTeX document editing.
I use nxml mode for XML documents of all kinds.
I use eshell as a shell. (I also use xterm with screen and zsh for
some tasks.)
I like to use emacs-w3m for web browsing, but not all pages look
acceptable with this, so I also use Firefox. But I configured JDEE to
use emacs-w3m for showing the Javadoc help, and I like it.
I tried to use ERC with bitlbee for chatting (IM) but that didn't work
well enough for me. I don't use IM a lot, so perhaps that's why Gaim
is better for me. But I can tell that for people who use IM a lot,
the ERC/bitlbee combination is better.
In the beginning, I didn't do all these things, but these just crept
up with the years.
