For unix gui development I use Visual SlickEdit. I prefer it over CodeWarrior anyday.
Also, gdb works great as a console debugger. Though there is a funky gui debugger
called ddd, it basically wraps gdb and adds the ability to 'see' your data. Useful
and sometimes really helpful but in no way necessary. Visual SlickEdit is not free,
but ddd is open source. Also, Nedit is a kickass gui editor that's open source, but
mostly good for quick edits and perl scripts.
