I'm positive some sadist somewhere in this world has all the software on their OS as a nix expression. I'm also positive that at least one of these people has a fully featured emacs IDE and all the required dependencies as part of that expression.

Totally down to try it if anyone has it.

One thing good about just standalone vim though is how portable it is. I can ssh into any server and fire it up. I also want this for a IDE. I want a console level IDE to fire up on any server I ssh into and if it's not in that server I want to be able to use any package manager to DL it easily.

I can't see any editor/IDE solve the above problem unless the editor becomes the ssh client itself. With that setup in place then my IDE can go anywhere.
