A basic app? I've been doing this for years and of course I can.

For the things I've mastered I hardly use google anymore, and even that is mostly to check if things have changed since the last time I used them and if there's a new way I didn't know about.

Yeah this is how it is for me as well. I like to see if someone has come up with a more concise method here and there.

Using notepad or your systems equivalent? I notice a lot of developers rely heavily on autocompleters and syntax hints in the editor, but deny that they need "documentation."

I get where you're going with this, and I agree with the general point.

But my emacs with ctags only does local method lookups, so that's not really my case.
