What is the best set of development tools to develop Win32 Delphi applications? Include support tools such as automated build servers and modelling software. It would be interesting to get a list of the best tools for Delphi development so please provide a brief description of the tool, state why you use it, why you selected it over alternatives and the impact it has had on your development process. One tool per post please so te more popular and hopefully more useful ones filter to the top. I will update my answer below with my opinion of the tools we use here when I get some time.

GExperts - (FOSS) Integrated IDE tools (Already mentioned, but well deserving of further explanation). Features most used by myself include integrated grep search (which can include use of regular expressions) with a nice UI, code navigation (ctrl-g for quick search and jump to any method in unit), custom key combinations (eg you could set ctrl-shift-B to Build-All), ascii chart for any installed system fonts,

Note: FOSS - Free Open Source Software
