FrozenVoid's (lack of) IDE

http://dis.4chan.org/read/prog/1321439259/23

Reducing typing is a noble goal, but any programmer worth his salt would write a decent .vimrc instead of abusing the cpp.

* All your nifty macros take up half of the code you produce
* These macros need to be lifted from project to project
* You end up producing code that is hard to understand for people who haven't memorized your macros.
* You can't use the macros while hacking *any* OSS

in short: learn to use a decent IDE and all these cpp abuses become obsolete. have a nice day.

That is an excellent solution, I suggest FV gets to it right away.

you can't just make a vim macro that computes a dozen defines and writes a final string.
>make everyone use vim and specific vimrc
>vim macros are inferior to C preprocessor power.

meanwhile, i got a macro to "close" the current line:
type fun('der, hit ^RET: automatically inserts ');. *BAM*. also closes [], "", and {}. and it's compatible with my html tag closer.
