Emacs is a great environment for playing games.

I use geany.

Good call! Since it was initially developed by IBM, I spent more time Googling how to set up Eclipse than writing code in it.

Which part of Eclipse did you have trouble configuring? I find it really pleasant to work with, even though the plugin system is a bit convoluted and over-engineered.

I have never failed to configure anything in Eclipse. Well, OK, that's a lie in that Bison and Flex are unrecognized (syntax highlighting) and the custom build steps for the resulting files are a mess to configure (gave up and made a makefile).

I still use it for the Java WebDriver apps I write for my 8-5, and I would agree that Eclipse really shines with Java. But too far outside of that and it becomes unwieldy -- to the point I feel like I'm being managed by the tool.

Not an IDE, but here goes:

1. Gedit
2. Bash
3. Konqueror
4. Firefox
5. file-roller

Most of this could be done in the CLI, but my memory isn't too sharp. These seven tools pretty much make up my entire development/packaging/distribution toolchain.

under my OS i use my own text editor, that makes good coloring for C codes. on linux, i use kwrite

I am currently using Atom with dark theme and "language-x86-64-assembly" package from 13xforever, but I used to edit my code with Notepad++

Recently switched to VS2017 from VS2015. I use Visual Studio for my professional work, and I haven't found a different IDE that meets my requirements.

It was well worth the tweaking and configuring

Do you build your OS with the msvc compiler too?

Yes, absolutely!

Vim, GCC, Tilix (used to be Terminix) - all in their newest versions on Debian Unstable

For making Windows programs i use Visual Studio, but when working on my OS i use Atom (used to use Notepad++) which is what i also use for making CS:GO plugins. I still use Notepad++ for quickly editing config files, etc. as it loads a lot quicker than Atom does
