I want to say use Emacs here. You can configure it behave like gedit if you really want. Buut, I get the impression you're not willing to consider Emacs for whatever reason. So, if gedit has a programmatic interface you can write shell script to parse the compilation errors (just look for line numbers) and send a command to gedit to go to the appropriate line. I don't know if gedit has that capability, but certainly there may be other text editors that do. > The generation that I am getting is very small (maybe 10 students), so > this might be doable with such a small number. > > I will think about it.

But definitely find out, the Live CD option is great. Next to zero work for a perfect setup.
