So, how do you keep your code clean?
1) I couldn't see how to customize the editor. To me this is pretty important feature. In other words how do I change shortcuts for common editing tasks? (ie. deleting a line, etc.) Actually a lot of the IDEs are very weak in this regard. NetBeans was pretty customizable but JEdit offered even a lot more features- copying to a register so you can copy/paste from different clipboards etc.
2) I'm sure this can be done, just didn't find it ... how do you have the project menu docked to the left and then have my screen I'm editing not hidden by it?
3) I didn't see a way to collapse code between brackets.
4) Customizable macros?

Well, I guess I must be writing to simple of applications since it never really has become a big issue for me. I'm sure I could fine tune after it's completed and make it much better and then yes I'd love a good refactoring tool. I admit this would be great. Unless I'm missing the main point of refactoring I thought it enables you to make changes in your code and that these changes won't cause bugs in the rest of your code as the refactoring tool will make the other necessary changes in other parts of the code.
So, that being said, yes I think a refactoring tool would be great, but is that what most are looking for as the major feature of the IDE? Maybe so and I'm wrong.
I guess you are saying then it's 400 dollars because it's a great refactoring tool? If so that's fine. I just thought it would have a bit more other bells and whistles, that's all.[/QB]

I can't say much more, as I have decided to use Eclipse instead.

Curious, why Eclipse? I really do like IDEA now after using it for about two days, but unfortunately I just can't spend 400 dollars right now. Could you give some advantages/disadvantages Eclipse has compated to Netbeans? I'm turn between which one to use as my 'big dog' IDE. I'm really comfortable with NetBeans but if their some good reasons to give Eclipse another shot I'd love to hear them.
