I have seen comments similiar to the above and finally decided to find
out what I am missing.  I have spent the last year working on a 33,000+
line application written in Turbo Pascal and estimate that I have used
the Integrated Enviroment ~90% of the time.  The other 10% of the time
I used the Turbo Debugger in order to debug assembler.

It is true that I was at home while writing the code (:-)), but I think
that I was able to be more productive since a) the IDE compiled/linked
my code faster than the command line compiler, and b) I could compile
and run, not compile, load the debugger, load the .EXE, and then run.

Comments?
