I am pretty sure you can configure Eclipse (or some other C/C++ IDE) for your sketches, but that's probably too much fiddling.

I personally use a plain-text editor and use a terminal for building and uploading. Also this.

Despite trying I have never been able to get this working-have you?
editor.external
When set to true, use an external editor (the IDE does not allow editing and reloads each file before verifying).

There seems to be something I am not understanding .
