Good IDE

What's a good IDE? I used kdevelop back when i used K, but I don't want to install K just for an ide. i've heard emacs is good, but will it do multiple files well and build from in the environment at one keystroke?

Emacs does do all this, but be prepared for learning curve - Emacs is a huge program ( considering it embeds a lisp interpreter, mail reader, etc ).

I'm not sure if I'd call it an IDE, but I use it for all my development work, along with GDB and Memprof.

yea, emacs is kinda intimidating. I loved kdevelop, i jsut can't justify the needed kde install. anything similar?

Edit: i found anjuta, it looks good so far. between that and qt-develop i think i'm set.

Have you checked out Eclipse? You didn't mention what language you use, but I'm guessing it's C++ since I think that's all kdevelop supports. Eclipse has a C++ plugin but I've only used it for Java, but it's pretty good for that.
