I never thought I need to learn an IDE (or a development environment in general) again after having a Visual Studio Black belt, beta testing Anjuta 2.0.x, fiddeling around with anything autotools, mastering emacs or using vim with a plethora of extensions installed blindfolded.

Naivly I thought: Never! But I am admitting hereby I am a newby right now without a single clue. Seriously, this Eclipse thing is a monster, pandoras box etc. pp. Are Java programmers 'crazy' or what kind of sane person can work with this thing right away? Right now, for me, total darkness. Waiting for being enlightened.
