  I've noticed that as well.  I was going to try using eclipse for some
JavaScript work that I'm doing on my own BBS, but I ended up calling that off
due to lack of decent support.  Hell, I'm still looking for a good editor for
JavaScript, being as my project is getting a little bit out of hand for just
bouncing around with 5 different copies of 'vim' running right now.  I mean I
like it, but I really need something that can map the OO layout for me, at the
very least.
  As far as testing, that's something that I need to throw into play, as well. 
I'm not familiar enough with testing to know how to do it, but I know that it's
exactly what I need for how cumbersome my shell is becoming.  TDD is where I'd
like to go with it, though I know there are other styles that might be a little
easier or quicker to implement.  I really need to get my professional software
engineer roomie to sit down with me and show me the ins and outs of it.  Still
haven't been able to find a decent tutorial for things on my own yet.

  Yeah I've got right around 100k of code right now that desperately needs to
be rewritten that way.  Well, that and I really need to go back and map my
layout on a frigging posterboard or something, because it's getting too complex
for me to remember off the top of my head.  Sucks when I leave an area of the
code for a few weeks, come back, and have to try to pick up where I left off. 
I see some people that can fly in and out of sections of code they haven't
touched for awhile like that; I, alas, am not one of them.  Too much damage to
the memory back in the 90s, I guess.  ;)
