As for me, I mostly work in Linux and do SAS, perl, xml/html kind of stuff, and FAME, in that order.

I work in tcsh and use emacs as my editor.

really doesn't count Matt.
 
Just started schooling for my BS in game software development. Mostly just doing Linux Shell and C++ at the moment but in the past have done Pearl, C, Python, and other scripting languages.
 
Visual Basic 6, Visual Basic.NET, VBScript, Java, JavaScript, XML/XSL/XSLT, SQL, TSQL, PERL, C, C#, CSS/HTML, PHP

I use VB.NET and TSQL daily. Haven't done Java, C, C# in a couple years now. CSS/HTML aren't really programming languages, but I have to know that stuff inside and out to do my job, so meh.

Aaah getting technical are we?

Well I use XSL to transform XML to HTML, not sure where exactly XSL fits in the spectrum. It has conditional processing and looping; I think those are two of the requirements for being a "true" programming language, but i think there are others.

Of course I also do straight HTML stuff, which is boring for me, cos I have no eye for design whatsoever, I just like to make stuff work.

Yeah, we're dorks. I love being a dork. "Dork" is the new "cool." Also, I tell my son, don't be afraid to be a dork. At some point in life there's a switch over. Most successful people in the world were dorks at a younger age: Alan Greenspan could perhaps be the biggest nerd in the world, and also one of the most powerful people in the world.

Anyway, getting back to the question, of the Unix guys, how many use vi, and, more impoprtantly, how many of you guys are snobs about the type of editor you use?
 
Ok ya friggin Napoleon wannabes, get back to learning ninja skills.

I am a Vi guy myself. Used it a few years back to code a MUD in ANSI C and continue to use it now. I am by no means a snob about it though, an editor is an editor. Though eMacs stinks IMO.
 
Okay, I'm showing my age, but I studied FORTRAN and COBOL in college back in the early 80's. I last programmed in the mid- to late-90's when I did web site design: HTML, Java, PERL, CGI scripting, etc.

Technology has since passed me by -- I can barely program my alarm clock any more. :laugh:
 
I work for an ISP in a Tier 3 group;
Unix, perl, vi, HTML and lots of talking to routers on the internet(very crypt commands). :p
 
Java, SQL, PL/SQL, perl, Ksh, bash....I'm an Oracle DBA.....

Vi - of course!

vim on the pc if available, where not available....notepad (yeah, it's crappy!)

Imageek! So?
