Not limited to C

- keyboard macros are #1.

- dabbrev-expand saves a lot of typing and typos for long variable and 
function names (my style)

- egrep for finding where a function or variable is used and stepping 
through matches

- autorevert for looking at debugger trace files in real time

- integration with CVS and SVN

- speedbar

Specifically for C:

- c-macro-expand, especially when maintaining code with a lot of clever 
uncommented macros (not my style)
