Intro: Gap

[gap]

I am Gary Pickrell a long time eskimo subscriber. I joined before everyone and their dog had an Internet connection, when ekimo north was the only company the provided unlimited connectivity without a meter.

I am a programmer by nature. C++, Ruby and Javascript are my preferred languages although I have been known to dabble in others. By day I am the development manager at castus.tv, a company that provides scheduling hardward/software solutions for public access TV broadcasters. By night I run PatternMaker Software which creates made to measures clothing patterns.

With respect to C++, Ruby, and JavaScript, do you use IDE's, command line tools, or individual graphical tools for these languages and which do you prefer to use?
