I use acme as my IDE because it is basically a tiling window manager. I keep an acme window open in my source directory, and type things like "go build ." there. If there's a problem in the code, the output goes to an Errors window and I can just right-click on the line numbers to go where I need to go. Because I have the plumber running, I can also right-click on URLs, image paths, etc to have them automatically open in the appropriate application (browser, image viewer, etc).
Of course, my colleagues think I'm insane because my editor encourages mouse use. I think they're insane because they bought a mouse but never use it :)
