Hi Sebastian

I agree.   I had a look at the Watcom IDE a little while back, and found it not
up to scratch.   But my comment about Watcom was related just to the compiler.

Basically, I want to use hand coded make files, an editor/IDE, and command line
compilers, linkers and the rest.  A sort of time warp into the late 80's or
early 90's.   This will give me the freedom to use whatever language I desire
for whatever application (I also now seem to do a lot of HTML and PHP for
example), while still retaining a familiar development environment.

I am not convinced that the IDE I want has been developed yet.
