I've been using Gcc, since that is what came with my Linux distribution. If you
are using Ubuntu, you have to do an extra step from the command line to install
it. (apt get build essential or something like that.) I was somewhat
disappointed since many of the other distributions came with it installed by
default. I'm learning the Linux command line and shell right along side C, but
that is a good thing, because it helps me in having an understanding of how it
all fits together.
