I'm using Monodevelop for Vala development. It has project management, syntax highlighting, code completion, build customization, SVN integration and is lighter than Eclipse. I've set it up on F5 to run WAF build in Scratchbox, transfer with scp and run with ssh directly on the tablet. Easy and simple :) Downside is that you need to use 2.0 alpha 2 to have Vala support and is not easy to get it running if you're not on openSUSE.<br>

</div>This is going *way* off topic for maemo (time for yet another classic<br>
emacs vs. vi bikeshed flamewar, eh? ;-) , but it's questionable<br>
whether using emacs is going to pay up in the long run:<br>

One contraindication for using emacs is the very bad intellisense<br>
support. I followed the "semantic bovinator" for a *years*, expecting<br>
it to provide intellisense on par with other closed & open source<br>
offerings, which proved highly disappointing. I don't know where it's<br>
now, but if something takes years to realize, it's probably a futile<br>
effort in the first place.<br>
<br>
I cut my own emacs addiction ~ 3 years ago, and wouldn't require<br>
anyone to acquire the same willingly; you may well end up spending<br>
more time tinkering / customizing than getting actual work done.<br>
