Technically, you can use Notepad++ or even VIM as your IDE and then use a command shell to compile your programs.

Simple:
bmk makeapp MyGame.bmx

Define different executable name, compile in Release mode:
bmk makeapp -r -o MyGame MyGame.bmx

Same, but make a multithreaded version:
bmk makeapp -r -h -o MyGame MyGame.bmx


Bonus: In VIM, you could even compile from within VIM since it has built-in command line

I bought Blide for the reason that it is pretty good for large scale projects, and the IntelliSense sort of thing that's built-in.

I'm sure you could create some form of keyword file for NetBeans... but not much point really.
