I am using a unix system and a PC too. In the past I have written a lot of
sources with emacs and idl mode. As the idl developmet comes to the windows
platforms I am myself switched more and more to this development. The
difference to emacs on the unix is that it is not color coded but on the PC it
is.
This colorcoding of procedures, functions, own procedures and own functions is
very helpfull.

It seems momentanly to me that's some features if neccessary or not are only
builded for the windows platforms e.g. a widget_builder
