Choosing the best editor for VLSI design and verification Coding

VIM : I have used vim approx 7-8 years and still using it on and off
I like the multiwindow feature of vim and so many keyboard shortcuts to copy, cut, paste, sort and more which makes the process fast. also it is open source.

DVT eclipse: I guess DVT eclipse is the best editor as the name suggests (Design and verification tools). but it is not free and the licence is quite costly. I did not get chance to use it a lot.


SUBLIME : I have switched to sublime for a while and went back to gvim again, but I like the grep feature to search in a folder and in top down the hierarchy. It gives all the results in a single window which is quite convenient to find the useful result.

VISUAL STUDIO CODE:  I have recently started working with this file system and started liking so many features so I am using it with gvim. combo of gvim and VS code works fine for me.
Also it has a open source version.


ATOM : I have never used Atom personally, but I have seen people using it and it looks quite clean.


EMAC : Emac is also very useful for plain text and clean view, people always compare between Vim and Emac.

PS . I will update this post with more info on editors
