Not only today, since Turbo Pascal for MS-DOS, the languages that 
have been designed with IDE support in mind, are the ones that 
ended up getting a long term place on my toolbox.

All others, I used to learn about new programming paradigms and 
approaches to solving problems, but at the end of the day IDE 
workflows and graphical tooling were too important to give away.

I find quite interesting, that although James Gosling was 
responsible for XEmacs, he is also on the IDE camp.
