I don't know anything about Qt, but I'm sure it's terrific.

The problem with relying on 3rd party software, though, is that
when something goes wrong (and it *always* eventually goes wrong),
it is too easy for software developers to point the finger at
one another. I would prefer to know who I am suppose to be
yelling at. For example, are my current problems (IDL seems to
become unresponsive to me at times, usually in the middle
of an IDL course) caused by ITTVIS or by the fine folks doing
the Eclipse development?

I'm afraid some problems (a seemingly random number of spaces
inserted whenever I hit the TAB key) will *never* get fixed. :-(

Cheers,

David
