I work between Emacs and IntelliJ pretty seemlessly. Bread and butter editing is done in IntelliJ, which has Emacs keybindings that I've tweaked to match my Emacs customizations (generally after the recommendations of Steve Yegge). But then I can drop into Emacs for the same file and line when I need to do more heavy duty transformations. Here's the IntelliJ setup: File > Preferences > External Tools Program: /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs Parameters: +$LineNumber$ "$FilePath$" Working Directory: /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS Then I map a key to open this (Cmd-E) On the emacs side, I have the following to pick up changes to an open buffer that were made in Intellij (global-auto-revert-mode 1)
