What are your criteria for usability?

Compile, See Compiler Errors, Run.
When I felt a similar desire many years ago, I decided to write my own - though 'nano' was my model, rather than TurboC. I'd build it all differently if I had to do it over, but it works well enough that I continue to use it, all day every workday:

If you can't find what you are looking for, perhaps you should write it yourself!

Can you tell why Emacs/Vim failed to fill this criteria?
Did I say it failed? I said I'm looking for something like Turbo C. In fact I have a very nice custom compile and run vimscript. Again, I'm just looking for sth like Turbo C, FP, etc ... mostly in terms of UI and vibe if you have to ...
