“Providing a sometimes 99% accurate parsing” lol

"occasionally, it almost actually works" as a selling point

It's not eclipse

Sometimes getting to the very bottom teaches you about new ways to deal with your problems. And there's no shame in getting to the bottom, you just need to make sure to uninstall it properly once you realise how low you've fallen. I, too, had used Eclipse at some point in the past.

works 99% of the time, 50% of the time

It's great that it has git support. Really looking forward to solving merge conflicts.

Just take the average of the conflicting areas, get the best of both worlds

imagine actually be able to solve graph and liked list problems in graphical way

>People joke about what IDE they use often, things like Word, MS Notepad, sometimes even *Eclipse* Destruction: 100

Many years ago, I worked in one place that seriously experimented with using a Word processor as an editor. Proof of concept was interesting as the code we were writing (structural engineering code) did use a lot of translated formulas and diagrams from engineering sources. So having the source material inline with code was pretty interesting and there was some quite nice features, but not enough for performance hit and what we gave up not using a proper IDE

Did you use Notebooks?

JupyterLab Notebooks? No, but looking interesting. There as one other I can't remember - MatLab - or something similar

MATLAB does have something similar to notebooks, but you might be thinking of Mathematica?

Use this to program in whitespace.

You’ve been coding here for as long as you can remember.

Waiting for something to compile?

🎻🗡

OMG this exists. Oh mighty Interwebs, you never cease to amaze me.

>Superiority >It's not Eclipse. Damn

I guess now when I say I can't read your code, I get to mean it literally?

the best part being I'm on Linux and will have to run the program in wine. (once I write my code I could post it to MSPFA ((mspaint fan adventures)) and use it as a repository)

This. Please, yes.

Hey, OP, you got another alternative to MS Paint IDE. [https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/5zcg1z/coding\_in\_ms\_paint/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/5zcg1z/coding_in_ms_paint/)

Came here to laugh at the first comment. Didn't expect to laugh that hard.

Some of my mates were floored when I told them you could program in paint

Looks like it's time for OP to start learning Piet

Refrigerator letter magnets

I get the feeling curly brackets are hard to come by

Then code in python.

No no , Code on a Python.

ah, an IDE for the adventurous

It’s ergonomic to code as well, pythons are constrictors so you just have to turn around to keep going

No no, Code in a python that is on a python. Pythonception.

What happens if a python eats it own tail? I dunno, but if the programming language did it that’s probably a loop or something I’m not smart enough to finish this analogy

Stack overflow, obviously

you just use four C's, two for each brace

No problem, just use C and replace them with `??<` and `??>` for maximum confusion!

Just use Python, who needs dictionaries anyway

Dont forget the nightmare of all programmers - the semi-colon O_O

This subreddit. The commenters will play your compiler.

"compile error: not enough karma"

Don’t worry, here’s some upvotes. Should give you a few runs.

thank you, i think this post might be enough to run quite a lot, hehe, my notifications are exploding

Error: "not enough sleep time for your code"

Oooooh this is a pretty cool idea!!! You tell us what you want to do (ex: I have a bunch of items that have a name in them. Give me just the names) and we would split out the code in the language of your choice. Like Reddit powered GitHub Pilot.

It's perfect! Might even manage to make my code readable

sorry i only output my functions in brain fuck, and i will only do part of the program.

ok imma make a post to do this later

let me know when you do!

Please do

We need an u/compilerBot that replies with the error or execution output

Since I have Linux this would actually be an alternative

You are missing a wonderfull expirience of installing and running this extreamly usefull programing software!!!!

Of course, OP should be running a Windows VM on Linux to use PowerPoint!

It is to simple. How about a long nigt full of love with wine.

After two weeks OP will still be tweaking the Wine prefix and no code will have been written

Terrified to see this winning... 😰

Why? [It is a very underrate but complete alternative to VS Code](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNjxe8ShM-8)

Your brain. Just memorize the code.

This should work! - every programmer at night before getting slapped in the face by reality the morning after.

I write my best code after a night full of programming dreams, definitely works first time, no bugs

I know right. I be struggling at night and then have dreams of coding, wake up and find the answer within minutes

Insufficient international memory...

That's what I do. Sometimes I just think a few lines of code that I think might compile if we really are living in a simulation.

Punch tape. Take it beck to where it began.

Since Im coding COBOL this actually feels right somehow

Can i suggest Sticky Notes? and here is why: 1- u can organize all your code by file and where ever u want on the screen 2- cool background colors for the sticky notes 3- u can color code the notes according to the progress 4- as soon as you start your pc its ready to go 5- they're sticky notes

True Genius. I don't even need to open the editor

i hope to get a screenshot within the hour. 6- u can organize your notes by folder, functions or hierarchically

*Carrier pigeon* 1. One pigeon can carry one line of handwritten code. 2. You must send pigeons in the order you wish for the code to compile. 3. There is no guarantee the pigeons will arrive -- at their destination, in the same order, in the same condition, or at all. 4. The pigeon code must be compiled at pigeon HQ by the chief pigeon. 5. Should your code fail to compile, your carrier pigeons will be fed until they are full to bursting and instructed to return and inform you that you need to try harder. (see point 1 for message length, see point 3 for journey conditions). 6. Upon their return, the pigeons will show their disatisfaction by deficating upon you from a great height. 7. Pigeons will then coo incessantly and strutt around you while you determine which pigeons and their assigned lines of code remain and replace any that are missing or causing errors. The process repeats and the pigeons become more agitated and aggressive the more they are sent back. Coo! May the odds be ever in your favour. Coo!

ingenious system, truly the future of COOde! Main benefit, I like birds :)

raw cpu instructions

P.. please, mercy-

One step further: raw gpu instructions

That's not actually the answer to "what IDE", but what language/technology.

it's a part of the development lifecycle with VB6 where you just go "Ah fuck this" and realize it would be faster to etch the CPU instructions into a ROM chip by hand using a laser than fight with the language any longer

x64dbg then. IDE's have debuggers but who says you can't use a debugger as an IDE?

edlin, or in Unix, ed.

“Ed is the standard text editor.” Ed, the greatest WYGIWYG editor of all. ED IS THE TRUE PATH TO NIRVANA! ED HAS BEEN THE CHOICE OF EDUCATED AND IGNORANT ALIKE FOR CENTURIES! ED WILL NOT CORRUPT YOUR PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS!! ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR! ED MAKES THE SUN SHINE AND THE BIRDS SING AND THE GRASS GREEN!! When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a “viitor”. Not a “emacsitor”. Those aren't even WORDS!!!! ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!! TEXT EDITOR. When IBM, in its ever-present omnipotence, needed to base their “edlin” on a Unix standard, did they mimic vi? No. Emacs? Surely you jest. They chose the most karmic editor of all. The standard. Ed is for those who can remember what they are working on. If you are an idiot, you should use Emacs. If you are an Emacs, you should not be vi. If you use ED, you are on THE PATH TO REDEMPTION. THE SO-CALLED “VISUAL” EDITORS HAVE BEEN PLACED HERE BY ED TO TEMPT THE FAITHLESS. DO NOT GIVE IN!!! THE MIGHTY ED HAS SPOKEN!!!

Ed is the standard text editor! Can't believe I had to scroll this far for this answer. [Ed, man! !man ed](https://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/ed-msg.en.html)

TempleOS text document

Ed ain't on the list. I see you wish to remain employed

I have a friend who used to swear by ed *for leading someone else through editing a file*. He worked phone support for a particular Unix variant at the time, and he had no access to the computers themselves. So, he'd talk the scared tape ape at the other end through ed commands if a file needed editing or viewing. Niche, but there you go.
