How to use IDEA? It's easy!
Create a file ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt and put this there
addSbtPlugin("com.github.mpeltonen" % "sbt-idea" % "1.5.1")

gen-idea
To install scala plugin in IDEA: Settings/Preferences -> Plugins -> Browse repositories -> find Scala, right click -> Download and Install. Restart IDEA

You don't have to buy the Ultimate version. Community edition works fine, it's open source and free.
