VS2010 for C++ and Notepad++ for anything else I do.
I use the unpaid version of JCreator for Java and Notepad++ for all text editing and other programming (which I don't do much of), both with Consolas. I would use Inconsolata, but it most of the glyphs have a little bump on the side that bothers me.
Notepad++
Visual C# 2010. [editline]3rd April 2011[/editline] For stuff that's not C#, Notepad++
Intype, VS, regular notepad or google docs depending what it is.
Am I the only Emacs-er? Emacs for development, nano/vi for quick edits or if emacs isn't installed, notepad++ if I'm on windoze.
Eclipse
Programmer's Notepad (Although Notepad++ Portable on my USB drive) and gEdit on Ubuntu.

And it's bloated as hell. (Okay, but honestly I can't see why anyone would ever use Esc-Meta-Alt-Ctrl-Super)
Isn't emacs an operating system?
I am addicted to vim.
[QUOTE=Staneh;28998229]Eclipse[/QUOTE] Thank god at least one other person on the forum uses eclipse...
Eclipse & gedit.

Notepad++ with Obsidian theme and Consolas font. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23989104/notepad%2B%2B.png[/img] But for C++ stuff, I mostly use Eclipse (with a custom color scheme though :D)
Visual Studio 2010 for c++ and c#, Notepad++ for everything else
VS2010 for c++ on windows and for c# Netbeans for Java Notepad++ for everything else on windows Kate/nano for everything else on linux Oh and... MASM32 (no joke) for asm (uni requirement)
On Windows: Dev C++ for C, C++ Eclipse for Java Notepad++ for everything else On Linux/BSD: Nano for quick tasks, or tasks where I'm repeatedly closing and reopening a file Emacs for big projects and playing Tetris I used ed once when I broke my terminfo file, making Emacs, Nano and even vi stop working
Espresso for front-end web development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript etc) TextMate for back-end web development (Ruby, PHP, Python etc) Xcode for C++ and Objective-C

May I ask why you're still using it?
[QUOTE=BlkDucky;29040782]Dev C++ is ancient. May I ask why you're still using it?[/QUOTE] Habit, mainly. I started programming C++ with it nearly 10 years ago. That's the biggest reason. Plus, it's installed on the school computers, so I don't have to switch between IDEs as often. And it's GCC-based, so I don't have to fear problems porting normal code to Linux. Finally, it's fast to start up. Visual Studio takes nearly a minute to open some projects. Dev handles it in seconds.
You could look at wxDev-C++, which is based on Dev-C++, but apparently still in active development. Viable alternatives also packaging GCC are Code::Blocks and CodeLite.

And who uses numerical prefixes when given the chance to enter numbers interactively?). Super and Hyper is pretty much ricer material, and you're pretty much better off using viper-mode then because assimilating features is the one thing Emacs is good at. I've acquired a taste for Emacs' batteries-included philosphy working on REPL languages, though. Nothing will ever replace SLIME+Paredit for Scheme/Clojure/CL dev.

I use the arrow keys.
vi in Linux Notepad++ in Windows TextMate on Mac OSX Pe on Haiku
