Why does /prog/ hate IDEs? What is so bad about having syntax formatting (which is always customizable), file managers, or -most of all- the ability to debug, link, compile, and execute your program with just the click of a button or two?
Give me one good reason why excessive, redundtant TACKATACKATACKATACKA with a weak-ass text editor and having to manually type commands for linking and compiling is superior.
I don't think you can do it. You're all jackasses who would rather look like a UBER 1337 H4X0R than efficiently code a decent program.

Yeah, I use Emacs too. Nothing wrong with that.

first of all, any text interface can be scripted, tasks can be automated, and the advantage is that we're not bound by the rules of your graphical interface, we have scripting languages like BOURNE SHELL to our aid
second, each to her own, because the world don't move to the beat of just one drum, what might be right for you, might not be right for some, a man is born, he's a man of means, then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans

The Microsoft Visual Studio C# IDE is actually pretty sweet. I'd say for GUI based dev, an IDE with some sort of WYSIWYG dialog editor is essential; you just can't work as productively under a text based environment. For the occasional small console application, or if you want to just experiment with some small piece of toy code, then something like emacs or notepad++ is fine.
As >>1 points out, IDE's are great especially for debugging; GDB simply does not compare to the Visual Studio debugger in terms of efficiency and productivity.
