Yes, I don't see this point either. A 'man 3 stpncpy' or an alt-space seems rather similar to me. Actually, with the 'man 3 stpncpy' we cannot be sure the results will align with the target platform.
Everyone uses IDEs, whether it is Emacs, Vim (with plugins), IntelliJ, Eclipse, Atom, Xcode doesn't matter.
Yes, I also use whiteboards, A4's, a notepad, mindmaps (Freemind), post-its and more. The creative parts of SE, such as architecture and design, do not blossom behind a computer.
- seanwilson 10y agoYou don't think the IDE automatically bringing up the documentation for the function arguments is more efficient here than typing terminal commands for each function you're using? I don't understand why people insist on using bare bones text editors when IDEs with more automation exist.
- edejong 10y agoYes, perhaps I was not clear. I do think an IDE is more efficient. Actually, I believe a modern IDE is barely scratching the surface of what could be possible. I am one of the lunatics who believe in editing directly on the AST, forgoing the filesystem and working on one shared merkle-tree-like database with function signatures as the primary entry point for search.
