    Which editor/IDE do you work with the most today?
    

    the only one and true editor :) GNU emacs

    What programming languages do you work with the most today?
    

    Common Lisp (for hobby projects) and elisp - unfortunately I don’t do real programming for money, but manage IT projects. Emacs and my own set of elisp helps me to get my work done (and procrastinate).

    Common Lisp and elisp
