Yeh.. a lot of people have said that to me. I like it myself but I
am a bit worried about what might happen with it. In SuSE 6.2
they've introduced some programming software called Kdevelop version
0.4. It's really good but I can't see very many folk in the open
source community liking it too much. I've been playing around with
Kdevelop today. Nice. works with C/C++ and Qt. It's a lot like
using VB in Windows.

Thanks
