An IDE will be an unnecessary complication for you.
There is nothing that an IDE can do that can not be accomplished by 
vi/grep/find/ctags.
There even *EXISTS* a GUI Vim!  :) 

One of the things I despise about a Micro$haft environment is that the lack 
of tools and convoluted environment DEMANDS the IDE. 

I am an experienced C++ programmer (in both, *nix and M$) and I know enough 
about g++ to be dangerous.  I'll be more than glad to guide your steps over 
software development the way that 'real men' write software!  ;-) 

Feel free to contact me at your convenience, I am heading out of town until 
Friday.
ET 

PS: And remember:
If you have any question,
you will get any answer...
