I use KDevelop, which runs in the KDE GUI, and uses the GNU tools. It came with my Liux distribution.


Vadim mentioned SlickEdit. It is cool, and I think it runs about 2 C-notes.


I don't know that either of these are particularly adapted, or adaptable to embedded development.

Yes, I don't use their IDE though, I have been using CodeWright as an IDE for gcc for a while and I wasn't ging to change just because I started using the tools from them. I have found their support for the compiler and associated tools to be excellent. I have seen a demo of their IDE (based on SlickEdit IIRC) and it looked good, just not good enough to make me want to switch.
