I just found this preety cool IDE it uses C++ and its a cross-platform compiler so you can use it and compile programs for use Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD. WinCE and MacOS support is planned.

What do you think? because I think it needs a little bit more looking at and I can't think of any other decent community that I would like to ask about it.
I think http://www.bloodshed.net is better
Wow! That cross-platform library is just what I was looking for! It provides all of those RichText controls and such, which is basically all I wanted. Not only that, but it provides the native GUI of the system which resolves the ugly FLTK issue I was having. They really don't document the usage of themes or even how to make themes that well. It looks so cool!

You were saying it compiles a binary for all of those operating systems? or do you have to actually get a seperate compiler and compile the program separately on all of those different systems?

All you have to do is install the Ultimate++ IDE for the OS you want to use and copy the source over to that OS then compile it using the bundled compiler.

Hope it helps.
I would suggest using MinGW or wxWidgets as cross-platform C++ libraries. You can use the excellent Code::Blocks editor for either of those.

MinGW is included with this.

What do MinGW and wxWidgets have in common? Does MinGW come with cross-platform APIs for windows, or did you simply just state it because they are bothy cross-platform? If that's the case, you should replace "or" with "and."

By the way, this isn't a grammar-mistake flaming-post because this really does apply to me. Looks real interesting, to say the least.
