This is not what I said: I consider Atom and Sublime Text to be advanced general-purpose text editors, not IDEs.

I was indeed referring to Eclipse and Visual Studio. From what I observed around me, for some reason, people don't use these to edit:

- shellscripts/perlscripts/batchfiles.

- Files written in a in-house domain-specific language.

- Configuration files.

- Makefiles and project files: vcxproj, sln ...

Actually, I observed that these kind of IDEs discouraged people doing the above things, giving them the impression that it's not "real development" (I suspect that this is, in part, where the bizarre term "scripting language" comes from, but this is another debate).
