Reminds me of a conversation I had with Microsoft.  I discovered a
serious flaw in one of their development products, and called the tech
support line.  The Microsoft Representative (to use the article's style)
said after I compile, to exit the IDE, run the program, then restart the
IDE to make any edits (effectively making the IDE an editor only).  If I
wanted to do that, I would use the command line, not an IDE.

Obviously, that representative didn't know what he was talking about.
