Re: Re: IDE on Linux

[<cjeness@bellsouth.net>]

When I tried to run the latest trial version of IntelliJ on RedHat 8.0,
I was unable to run the HelpBrowser because it was actually trying to
launch the Internet Explorer executable.  I complained to IntteliJ, but
they did not respond.

Also, Eclipse does not run correctly on RedHat 8.0.  It will run correctly 
on RedHat 7.1.  I don't know about releases in between.  When I say that it
does not run correctly, I mean that it will not even start.  Since the
mailing list and help process on Eclipse was so extremely "closed" for an
open source project, I did not pursue this issue.   I did scan the newsgroups 
and saw that others were having problems with Eclipse under Linux.


NetBeans runs OK but is somewhat overkill.  I actually like JEdit.  At least
for me, it seems to run reliably on all versions of Linux and does not
require a large time commitment to get started using it.
