64-bit development in Linux

[Aleks Peshkov]

I prefer NetBeans over Eclipse now.

VIM

Enough said

Add a G . Works great on Windows and Solaris as well.

I have only used Fedora for a couple of days, but I think you would install gcc with

Code: Select all

#>yum install gcc

from the command line, or from searching the package manager for gcc. Anyway, not important since you switched from Fedora. If you switch again to another distribution, you could avoid similar issues with this quick cheatsheet .

I could summarize some of the IDEs (most already mentioned) available in all distributions:

Eclipse
NetBeans
Emacs
Vim
KDevelop
Code::Blocks
Geany
Anjuta

Eclipse is the one I have been using extensively, because I have to, for the last years and I discourage everyone from using it because I think it is way too big.
