Eventhough I'm not warm enough on the other ideas, this certainly catches
me here (*thump*) ... In the past week I have been trying to compile
various programs/libraries using various tools starting from "gcc -shared"
to "libtool" and going on to "csant" .... IMO, an IDE is just the basis
of development.

My IDE is currently called "vim" and does what is called the "wq" operation.
Also included in the package is "!make" "!make clean" and "!make test" ...
(sic) !

My python efforts have hit a solid wall in pnet .. the lack of a nice
stack or a real flow of execution (for my wrapper) has been a damper in
terms of scripting.

Ruby seems more promising , from what I could see . But the syntax and
semantics of that language freaks me out . (maybe because I don't 
understand it). Well let's see how it turns out.

Maybe we already have a couple , remember the nice little 8-Puzzle in that
old pnetcgi program of mine ... and... and "Curse of the Frogger" by
Rhys (ncurses) .
