Yes, I have yet to get the hang of gdb and ctags. =) >>gdb... shudder... for that I'll happily use the GUI layer over it! Try the Source Navigator bundled with the GNU Pro Tools from Redhat (formerly Redhat EDK).  It comes with an IDE for gcc, g++, gdb etc...  It also comes with a cross-reference parser, class hierarchy viewer, and a symbol lookup feature which comes in handy when your project reaches around 200 files or over.
