Depending on your platform you might consider different Tools I guess.
For Dos, you might wanna look at djgpp (if that still exists)
For Windows mingw, bloodshed's devcpp might come in handy, sinsce it
will deliver a gui+mingw.
Of Course you can use Eclipse or Netbeans, I guess, though they are
monsters, they don't seem to be useable by normal People (As most IDEs).
Alternatives are Codeblocks (cross platform, like netbeans/eclipse),
Anjuta for Gnome, Kdevelop for KDE.
I personally still use vi (or any syntax highlighting editor) and run
gcc manually, or use autotools for bigger projects.

I need some basic pointers (no pun intended). I have been
writing/compiling code using Borland and Micro$oft development packages
under Windows and DOS for a long time but haven't done much for the past
four years or so. I am trying to get a handle (sts) on GCC and am
overwhelmed by the manual. Is there a simple "howto" for just starting
with GCC? Is there any kind of GUI package available for programming in
it? Is there any package for developing GUIs for user interfaces with
the fundamental program body?
I believe that once I get started I can ramp up the learning curve
pretty rapidly -- I just haven't tried to start from scratch with any
programming package in about 25 years and am simply overwhelmed by what
I can find.
Thanx
