Code Editors
IDE (Integrated Development Environment)combines the editor, compiler and other useful tools in the same software package. Its advantage is that when a program with syntax errors is compiled, the programmer sees the error messages and the original program at the same time -- this makes debugging much easier. Also, some IDEs contain debuggers. Visual J++, VisualAge for C++ or Java, Java WorkShop, and Visual Caf�?�© are IDEs.

A code editor is typically a text editor with programming language libraries installed. The editor recognizes programming keywords and renders them in the specified color code (known as syntax highlighting). Other features include code beautification and compiler integration. In some cases, code editor is a scaled down version of IDE.
Pow !
Pow! is a software development environment for Microsoft Windows. It allows the generation of native Windows applications using the hybrid object-oriented programming language Oberon-2. Included in the package is an Oberon-2 compiler developed by Robinson Associates.
Pow! offers all the functions known from other programming environments: a multi-document-editor, embedded compile- and link calls, integrated make- and build-algorithms for project-management and online help for the environment, the programming language Oberon-2 and the enclosed programming library Opal.
Additionally, Pow! supports Java (using the JDK) and C/C++.
Who needs Pow! ? Everybody who would like to use a high - quality integrated development environment for Java or Oberon-2 should have a look at Pow!. (And did we mention that it is available free of charge?)
Java Users: Pow! is a comfortable environment around the command line oriented tools which come with Suns JDK. Compilation and program invocation are available at the touch of a button while the integrated editor allows to view and edit multiple source files at the same time.
Oberon-2 Users: Pow! offers a full implementation of the language Oberon-2. Pow! is therefore the ideal choice for anyone who would like a native Windows based development environment for Oberon-2. Pow! also includes the Oberon-2 library OPAL, which makes it easy to create native Windows programs without getting into contact with the Windows API directly.
