Hi.
Does anyone knows where I can find a gcc ide to use under cygwin?
Thx in advance.
Best regards,

Depending on what you call an "IDE", your best bet is probably to get Eclipse (with the CDT plugin), and configure that to use the Cygwin GCC... or to hack Emacs / vim to oblivion, as some Debian types would probably do.

You don't need to work in the cygwin shell to use cygwin programs
I use the simple highlighter editor (notepad++/context/whatever) and have the console next to it where all i do is typing 'make' 'make' 'make'.
If you try and fit those together on your desktop it might even look like a real IDE.
Different idea: Maybe you can trick Dev-C into using cygwin's stuff.

I like Dev-C++ as well, and it's not terribly hard to reconfigure to use something other than the default MinGW.

I use DEV-C++, but last time i reconfigure it i ended up messing everything else up, so now i use gcc on cygwin manually.
