Looks like what he really needs/wants is an IDE.

  I use tmux and vim too. The problem is no IDE (or editor) comes near tmux+vim for me. If they did, I wouldn't be using tmux+vim since it's an awful experience living inside a text-based window-manager like that.

  Looks like he has one that fits his needs nicely with the bash terminal.

  What I most time miss in an IDE is tight terminal integration, I find myself often redirecting buffer contents between panes, terminal pipelines and composing microprograms on the fly to enhance my workflow.

  In fact, if you are not on Windows your OS already _IS_ an IDE. An OS is software, so it also needs to be developed. Therefore it was natural for OS developers to create their OS in a fashion that enables development. Apple and Microsoft are the only exceptions, and Apple somewhat backtracked on that path to enable developers as well. Some easy things are usually much faster to learn in a traditional IDE, since it has GUI. But that often leaves people less able to continue development _OF_ their development environment. If you want the full power or understand how stuff works underneath you better use an OS that works as IDE, e.g. Linux.

    >os is an ide It went nice for me with mingw/msys and selected tools for few years, but modern windows (>=vista) ugliness and death of native windows gtk distribution completely dimmed it. Msys2 may be a solution, but what a mess it is for non-packaging people. Since yesterday night I'm more than happy with mint/xfce laptop again. I really don't need anything windows-specific, except few time-stealing games.
