Another 7zip vote from me.  Supports everything I care about.

I use Cygwin for a bunch of stuff.  I have C cross compilers for: Sega
Dreamcast (SH4), PocketPC, 6809 & 680x0 (Amiga).  I like playing with
old platforms :-)
Technically these are not Linux tools (Linux is just a kernel), but
rather GNU tools.

I just can't 'get' Visual Studio.  I much prefer the editor of my
choice (Scite - recommended by someone here!) and a makefile.  Does
the job perfectly.
