Software productivity tools for working with Java source code

Primary Research Category: Software Development Tools  
Principal Investigator: Michael Van De Vanter  


Project Overview

Software development tools for Java programmers:

Build a series of small exploratory tools to improve the productivity of professional Java Programmers. A lot of professional programmers still use Emacs as their primary development environment. Emacs is over 20 years old and still carries the legacy of glass teletypes. Surely we should be able to do something with 20+ years of Moore's law and modern displays.
