dislike IDE's -- nonstandard binary project file formats that lock you
into the tool.

Yes, that and that one can not diff those files against prior versions in CVS or SVN and make any sense as to what changed from one step to the next.

There is nothing as terse or complete to compare with a Makefile at packing all of a project's particulars in one place.
