I'm pretty sure "Power users" don't use Ubuntu.

And this is how I see Linux quickly unravelling and planned insecurities creeping in over the next decade or so.
I do miss the tags of SVN that would replace certain strings on each commit such as the date, a version number, etc.
All of javascript is kinda just pretend.
CVS is gonna make a comeback! I tell ya!
This looks awesome - thanks! What's the all-in price?
what's "large" and what's "cheap"?
Also forgot to point out, you can buy keys with a transparent cover over the top on ali so you can shove a piece of paper underneath the transparent bit to use as labels.
I get this, but an IDE should be invisible and grow as you do and not require you to learn lots of janky things before it becomes a little bit useful for you.
Need the basics, great, here they are. Don't understand some advanced feature? Well the IDE has it here, but it isn't in your way, mess with it as and when you want. It'll still be there.
I don't think one IDE does everything for different languages and its ok to swap editors depending on your workflow, your project and your ever-changing skillset.
I'm using Mate and it allows me to easily define custom shortcuts to open apps and so on. I suppose autoIt / the linux variants / custom script can add additional functionality to the keypad as well!
I remember installing Debian before Ubuntu was born using an ncurses type interface and spending five minutes selecting the packages I want to install, (only for it to tell me that one package was incompatible with another and the installation couldn't proceed!) but being able to do it somewhat graphically made it so much easier than simply by text.
An OS stays out of your way and lets you do what you need to do. Having to essentially create the basics yourself is unproductive and a waste of my time.
