Hi!
I have lost my Linux partition (when installing FreeBSD) and all the development work was going in windows last month. I have found a really good tool (for windows) - Dev-C++ IDE, and now I want it on my brand new Linux machine!
I was looking at Bloodshed Dev-C++ homepage here and found that Dev-C++ uses the Mingw port of GNU GCC compiler, also it can be used with Cygwin and any short of GCC based compiller. So theoretically it can work with Linux's or any other OS's GCC, So you (in worst case) should just port user interface (roughly speaking) to Linux. I even think that it is using GTK for windows (please correct me if i am lying). I still haven't got a look to its sources (It's GPL), because of problems with my greedy ISP, but I am going to download any time soon. So it's relatively possible to run it in linux, right? I think it at least should run in wine, (I didin't tried, because of my strict bandwith limit) using the linux gcc? Any ideas on this?
Regards
PS.:
I am a very big noob in programing, so please forgive me if I am making big mistakes in what am I saying.
