The had the first IDEs including source level debuggers in the late 
1980s long before Windows or Linux became popular as they are today (and 
when i started software development, Windows 3.1 didn't even exist) - 
and yes, i really liked the opportunity to have "projects" and 
debugging. Just because it is technically possible to do something 
without a special tool it does not mean that using better tools is not wise.

BTW: The GNU Debugger was created in 1986.

I doubt that you ever did projects with thousands line of code from 
scratch and more than one person working on the same project this way.
