Well, I don't do much programming inf *Pascal (ObjectPascal/FreePascal) as a job on Linux (I moved to php-based web development lately), but I do hobby-programming quite a lot (actually, on a daily basis), and I use Lazarus for this. As I have written already, it will compile 90% of your existing Delphi code, it's 100% cross-platform (Win/Lin/Mac/*nix/*BSD/Solaris etc) and it can even cross compile your programs on Linux for Windows (so that you compile a program under Linux and you get a perfectly functional Windows exe). I am writing a project with my friend, a Windows user, and I don't need any ifdefs in my code to compile it both on Linux and Windows. You can check it out here: http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org Do read the forums a little, and take a glance at the Documentation. The community is great, they will be happy to help with any problem. And you can try Lazarus on your existing Windows setup, so that you don't move to Linux without knowing the IDE. You can also look at the Eclipse project - do a search on Google or at sourceforge.net - It's a big, cross-platform, multiple programming language, plug-in based IDE platform. Hadn't used it, but heard lot of good about it. Check the Mono project for .Net - www.mono.com I believe. It has it's own IDE - MonoDevelop. Look at Ruby on Rails (you'll have to do a search on Google for it, can't recall the webpage) - it's a new web development platform, in theory it is supposed to be similar to Asp.Net. All of the above are OpenSource projects (but maybe for Eclipse, I am not sure). There are also OpenSource IDE's for Java, C/C++ (KDevelop), VisualBasic etc. There are a *lot* of possibilities, really. But if you mean an IDE similar to Delphi (in functionality) - then Lazarus is something I'd recommend. Cheers Mike ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
