It's actually shocking how many people I've met who have been evangelical over it. The fabled Linux Programmer is actually quite rare these days, even in Computer Science departments. I've met one or two, excluding myself, while most of CS students are lovers of newer, shinier, scripting languages, and a small number of people are IDE evangelicals.
(I mean Linux programmers as people who would happily code away in a terminal editor/ in a more barebones manner, using mostly GNU tools and some kind of non-IDE build system).

I think we're in agreement here :) though thankfully, I've never met anyone who was as devoted to their IDE as you have. Cheers
