DDD && xwpe (fwd)

[cyoung at bbnplanet.com (Chuck Young)]

Glenn asked me to pass this on to the group as well...

I have already asked the only emacs fanatic I know if he would be
interested.  I was thinking 40 minutes for DDD 40 minutes for xwpe and 40
minutes on emacs (I know emacs could go all night, but then couldn't
everything go on all night?  :-))

Funny, I too, was thinking that a general talk on code development on Linux
using native tools would be nice.  My only fear is that many folks know it all
already.

Xemacs (or emacs if you don't like color or non-Courier fonts) should be added
to the agenda, since it and "make" form the primary "IDE" under Linux.

I couldn't help but think "just like in Emacs", many times during the talk when
a particular feature was shown.  As it stands, the product they had was not 
much more than a file manager.

The only other item that I'm not aware of that would be useful is a class 
browser, preferably integrated into Emacs.
