Submission + - Linux Coding Environment for Windows coder

NewLinuxCoder writes: "I've pretty much made the switch to Linux from Windows at home, though I'm still stuck on Windows at work...which is where I do most of my coding. But I still have the itch occasionally to write some code at home.
I'm used to text-editing type environments (use UltraEdit and TextPad for Windows mostly) so I'm really just looking for a decent text editor with syntax highlighting, some macro functionality, integrated command execution and stdout/stderr capture. And despite my fun with vi (oddly also mostly at work!) I prefer to code in a GUI. I played with Eclipse in the past and found it somewhat overkill (and to be honest: bloated) for my needs, but maybe I should give it another look?

So the Question is: What is your Linux coding environment?"

Submission + - C#, C++, Delphi and Java compilers tested

An anonymous reader writes: Developer named Master Alex, took LZMA SDK and compiled a set of benchmark using SDK as an algorithm base. Here he put an archive with source and compiled in Delphi, C#, C++ and Java binaries. Results are put here and retested here. See, Java runtime code speed in decompressing under Windows x64 is only 15% slower then that of C++.

So, the question is can you provide an optimized code in Delphi 7 so it achieve the same (+-10%) speed as C++ compiled code? Or is it impossible? It presumed that Delphi binaries are very fast, almost of C++ speed.

Probably because Gaim itself is more like Sean Egan's hobby/side project, so technically it's in no way affiliated with Google. If Gaim was created as a Google in-house project and stood for "Google Amorphous Instant Messenger" then maybe yeah, but it's not.
