    I think Emacs is great for programming. It has modes for almost every programming language. For LaTeX mode the AUCTeX package is incredibly useful. Besides LaTeX the languages I most often write code in are bash, Java, Tcl, troff, Octave, R, Clojure, Objective-C, and Scheme. Emacs has good modes for all those (in particular JDEE is what I use for Java). There are auto-completion packages for Emacs, though typically I use those only for the few times I write C or C++. Emacs also integrates well with most version control software.

    I'm still using jdee. Because of the updates to how JDK after Java 8 locates core classes, I had to make an update to the jdee server backend that is used for things like finding import class names. Once I did that I'm able to use it with Java 8 on up. I believe that the github repo fo the server now has the same updates.
