The only useful feature VS has which GPS does not is "bookmarks." [ VS quite degraded since VS 2005, which was its best version IMO. Each following version is getting more bloated, slower and less usable. ] P.S. I don't count the debugger, because it is not an IDE's part actually. AdaCore cannot do anything with gdb. Maybe they should consider supporting other debuggers in GPS. -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
