[Novalug] IDE usage and putting comments in code

[Doug Toppin]

I'd finding myself picking up an interesting (and bad) habit in my
usage of the Eclipse IDE for java development.  Eclipse (like any
similar IDE) "helps" you by giving you a list of methods you can call
and attributes you can use as you are editing code.  In the old days
(ie pre-IDE) I would just slog though with a simple xterm and vim and
I would think in advance of what I was typing and put comments in as I
did it.  With Eclipse, I'm finding that I am putting many fewer
comments in as I type.  I think it's because I'm waiting to see what
it's going to "let" me do and as a result I don't always go back and
add comments.
Anyone else observed this and, if so, have opinions of whether or not
it's a trend (or is it just me)?
