Does SPICE run on Linux? and that In software design, I'm looking for development environment for C/C++-based programs. kdevelop/anjuta/(x)emacs/(x)vim/... There are a LOT of mix and match options in this direction, kdevelop and anjuta are more MS studio like, the emacs vs. vim is a holy war option, very different experience, very extendable and depend on a bunch of external programs to help. The main debugger is gdb (with lots of gui wrappers available). compiler is gcc/g++ for just about anything. Whats your favorite poison in this direction, say your likings and there is probably something out there for you. Recommendations and links to suitable sites would be appreciated.

Re: Commercial-grade application software
Hi That's true, there are a lot of possible mix-and-match. I am looking for a completed one that may suit my needs. Basically I have in mind an integrated environment like those available fr Borland or MS. Cheers __ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

Mix-and-match allows members of a development team to customize their personal environment, while maintainting consistency in the package being produced. Mix-and-match also allows the free software model to work. As someone else said, there is kdevelop and anjuta. Apt-get will find all the other stuff they need, and make it look integrated. That's actually what MS and Borland do. They just don't tell you. They make it difficult for us who don't like the GUI. I think either will meet your needs. Please don't make me use them. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Mix-and-match allows members of a development team to customize their personal environment, while maintainting consistency in Pick an editor; emacs or vim, or something. I know emacs has hooks to compilers, debuggers, and source code control systems; editing modes specific to various languages and file formats, etc. I imagine vim can do as well or better (ymmv). Build yourself a toolset. Whatever you end up with will likely work every bit as well on whichever language you fall in love with next week. And by the way, vim/gvim is not the crufty old boring editor you may remember. Xemacs, ditto. You don't have to rely on monolithic, highly specific apps in Linux. You get to choose your environment; the one that works for you, and the one that you don't have to learn all over again next week. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Commercial-grade application software
Hi folks, I have now a working Linux system with an acceptable GUI and a broadband linkfor communication, all with freely available software. But without application software, they don't mean much. I'm looking for good application software in the areas of hardware and software design. In hardware design,I'm looking for E-CAD for analog and digital circuit design and simulation. Does SPICE run on Linux? In software design, I'm looking for development environment for C/C++-based programs. Recommendations and links to suitable sites would be appreciated.

In hardware design, I'm looking for E-CAD for analog and digital circuit design and simulation. Does SPICE run on Linux? I like this one the best so far. I don't know about spice or e-cad, but Debian has programmes for these functions. In software design, I'm looking for development environment for C/C++-based programs. No need to look for sites, these applications are available on your machine all ready. Just as user, type aptitude at the prompt, and when the ncurses based gui comes up, take a look through the sections marked development and electronics. Debian is almost entirely built on C/C++. Anything you want to download, make a note of, and then download as root. Recommendations and links to suitable sites would be appreciated.
