Did you mostly use vi to edit files? What were some of your goto IDEs?

  For me it was mostly vi editing perl cgi on Solaris or Linux boxes. Someone might have been using (x)emacs, but he was weird ;-) Oh, and we didn't use source control either.

    vi with perl cgi here, too. I played a little with Java Applets. I still remember waiting for them to start up.

      Oh gosh, I forgot those! I even wrote a airline-booking-system terminal program in Java, all before swing reared its ugly head!

  No, I've always been an Emacs guy, and still am. When I got started with Linux, on a 386 with 4 megs of memory, I used jed though because the machine was so limited - even back in the mid 90ies it was a pretty limited machine.
