[llvm-dev] Need some help over here

[Brian Cain via llvm-dev]

How about VS Code?  I don't think it's designed to be quite an IDE like VS
however it might suit your needs anyways.

I suspect it would probably address one or more of your issues via
plugins.  You can actually use vim keybindings, which I thought was a
pretty keen feature.
