Re: What programming environment do you use?
We use VIM and Makefiles under Linux to program the robot, and I use the same setup for any other programing I do. Who needs an IDE when you can have 4 virtual desktops and 7+ xterms at your disposal?

Although this wasn't asked, we use SVN for revision control for both our code and our CAD files (solidworks) for the bot. It makes bringing up a new machine much easier.
