If you feel tired about the Arduino IDE and you are fan of terminal. I recommend you to try 'ino' as well as micro as editor.

Ino

Ino is a Python tool to build and upload code to Arduino boards. It is also very lightweight and fully open-source.

1. Install Ino : pip2 install ino
2. Create and initialize the project:

 shell

    
mkdir project
cd project
ino init

  

3. To configure the settings about the board, you can use the following template: name this file ino.ini and add it into the root folder of your project.

 ini

    
[build]
board-model = mega2560

[upload]
board-model = mega2560
serial-port = /dev/ttyACM1

[serial]
serial-port = /dev/ttyACM1


  

4. Code your script by modifying the file src/sketch.ino
5. Build and upload to the Arduino (using the settings of the file ino.ini) run: ìno build && ino upload

Now each time you want to upload the project to the board you just need to run ino buid && ino upload. Ino will use the configuration of ino.ini to build your
