Hehe. Do they use JBuilder or NetBeans? The debuggers in those
environments are ok, but I really didn't like them that much
(certainly not their editors). OTOH there used to be MS VJ++, and
there still is IBM's VisualAge for Java (ugh! you don't want to know.
seriously!).

Yeah, I had a job with a java shop for around a year and a half. I
was forced to use windows for the first 3/4 of a year, then I received
permission to use debian as long as I stayed productive :-).
While stuck on windows, I used cygwin almost exclusively. I found
that XFree86 (4) had binaries available, and so did kde 1.1.2. I
recompiled gvim to use GTK+/X. I also compiled mutt and ssmtp for
mail. It was a sweet as windows can get :-).

I do use (g)vim (and the rest of a unix shell environment) as my IDE.
I agree that ctags really adds to the convenience level.

I don't have the tags file handy, but I know how you can make one.
Grab a copy of JODE from sourceforge. Use it to decompile the .class
files in 'rt.jar'. Then run ctags over the resultant source tree.
