Best PC-based OS for RTEMS / GNAT development? (Part 2)

[Jake Janovetz]

I've always found command-line to be easier for several 
reasons...
   1. It's easier to build/debug from remote.
   2. IDEs always seem to leave weird files hanging around such
      as .prj (project files), .dsn (design files), etc, etc...
      None of this is ever portable between versions and/or 
      computers.
   3. It's easier and faster to type "make" than it is for me to
      click File->Open->Open Project->Are you sure?->Yes
            Project->Build->Entire project->Are you sure?->Yes->
                   This will delete all object files in XXX->
                   Are you sure?->Yes->Last chance...

gdb is a bit difficult to navigate and has a relatively steep
learning curve, but printf() is all you ever need, right?  :-)
