What do you mean "get a compiler working?" GCC's C and C++ compilers should be installable through your distro's package manager. On Fedora that'd be: dnf install gcc-c++ gcc GUIs require a toolkit; they aren't part of the compilers. IDEs are not either, though there are some fairly nice IDEs out there, such as Kdevelop, Code::Blocks, or Qt Creator. The latter can ease work with the Qt toolkit that Sasha posted an example for (and will be collecting the $100 I presume). Personally I prefer a simple text editor, but I only really use Python these days. For GUI's there are numerous toolkits available. Gtk+ and Qt are the two main ones used by most modern desktop apps (and have bindings to various languages). There is also FLTK, a light-weight C++ toolkit. And probably others. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
