C IDE That Works With Cygwin?

(1/2) > >>

digerati1338:
I've got a Cygwin development up and running.  It works great for builds and patching, but right now I'm just using Wordpad to edit code.

Is there an IDE out there that would work well with Cygwin for actually editing the C code?  What do you guys use?

scorche:
Many of us use simple text editors such as emacs, vi/vim, notepad2, etc.

Wordpad will not handle linux line endings.  Use something else such as notepad2, notepad++, etc.

bluebrother:
There is no need for a specific IDE -- you have the files present on your harddrive, so you can edit them with any IDE you like. If you are looking for a free IDE you might want to try eclipse, or any other available.

Wordpad does handle unix line endings at least when opening files, notepad doesn't at all. But when using TortoiseSVN you'll get DOS line endings anyway ... (one of these features of SVN I'm not sure if I like it or not).

Mad Cow:
I personally use Notepad++. It has presets for at least 20 programming languages and generally works really well.

Llorean:
Notepad++, ConTEXT and DevC++ are all probably going to be acceptable choices.
