I've tried xwpe, rhide, and Kdevelop. I really liked xwpe for it's simplicity and resemblance to the old Borland C IDE; but Kdevelop has some advantages that you can't ignore. First, it's the most complex of the ide's above. It's also the most functional and productive. One thing that's a real mind blower about Kdevelop is that makefile, documentation, and binary packaging provisions were built right into the IDE. It sets up sample documentation and configuration files that are exactly in line with the generally accepted packaging standard for GNU rpm and tarballs across the net. If you're using Kdevelop you are automatically compatible and up to date with the latest program packaging standards. That's a HUGE time saver. That also means that if you've never manually assembled a binary package for public consumption, Kdevelop gives you a BY Example crash course on how exactly to do it properly. Having said that, I also have to say that I haven't found a way (yet) to neatly integrate my use of Vi as an editor in to Kdevelop. It has an IDE of it's own (editor), but it's in no way comparable to Vi. I would have assumed that there would have been a way to integrate Vi and Kdevelop smoothly and seamlessly together, but I haven't seen it yet. Presently I work in a transparent Eterm using Vi to edit the C source, then go to Kdevelop, reload the source (an annoying process), and then use the Kdevelop utils to generate the makefiles, object files, documentation, and binary(s). In fact, any advice from some Kdevelop wizard on using the ide in a way that automatically edits the sources using the programmer's favorite editor would be appreciated....
