how do do with IDE ? Do they really suck or do I do not know how to handle GPS ?

Hello.

First time I work for real (way to talk... small work, yet on a programmer's program), with many files, many entities, etc.
Is it me, or is it stupidly hard to have GPS find the original definition of a type ? Said otherwise: why doesn't "goto file spec<->body seem to work on constants ? What I want to trace back a constant declaration ?
I study Sparforte, the shell from Ken Burtch. There's this type, "identifier".
I can't find "type identifier" anywhere, except a mention in a comment, but type definition.
Is it that don't know how to use GPS... isn't it meant to be straight-forward, you type next to "default" and it's searched in all your source, or the same with control-f ? What the F$c% ?

For those who do not use modern IDE and DO NOT USE EMACS, who do you do ?
