I'm sure other people will have better answers.

> Q: What is the tool that you use for Gimp development (ex: Vim, Emacs,

> A:
code editor (Geany) + a virtual terminal + valgrind + GDB

> Q: Does your development environment support direct compilation (answer
> Yes or No)? If so please explain how in the note (e.g. IDE/editor

> A:
Yes.

Compilation is built into Geany, bu I use a virtual terminal instead.

> A:
No

felt any need (unlike when writing html, for which I use bluefish).

> Q: What are the special benefits of your development environment?
> A:
No complicated guis to deal with, esssentially no CPU or RAM overhead
except when actually compiling.

> Q: What are you still missing?

The one thing I don't like about Geany is I haven't figured out how to
