What do you use instead?

SEU for Midrange development, and Eclipse for Java development. And of the two, I find SEU much easier to work with, but even Eclipse is less frustrating than VSCode.

And if I want to do a nesting trace, I do it the old fashioned way: on hardcopy, with fountain pens in five colors.

Then again, the newest development tool out of Microsloth that I actually *like* is QBX. Which is decades old.

And Richard, it was a profoundly frustrating project, involving tools that did not behave as advertised, and tutorials and reference materials that would have still been grossly inadequate even if their examples *did* behave as advertised. I could say more, but then I'd be obligated to kill everybody on the List, and irretrievably crash the archives and destroy all backups.

When it was reassigned, my reaction was "good riddance."
