Command line with a good programming editor like Emacs or Vim is the best, but if you want an IDE, then I suggest Eclipse.

I use QTCreator suggested by myrkos, but I don't think you can program in C there

Visual Studio for design, then compile with Open Watcom to make an .EXE file with no dependencies.

For command line applications, I prefer code::blocks
For windows applications, Visual Studio is pretty good.

X_X for some reason I can't seem to be able to install the MingGW compiler correctly. I'm currently waiting for a reply on the official C::B forum but it seems to take a while. I tried on Eclipse and C::B and nothing. Any help?

It usually takes me a while to find out what these things means, but this time I understood it, thanks.

Personally, I use mingw in command line when I'm on Windows and gcc when I'm on GNU/Linux.

It's the way that works best. I use Emacs or Gedit to write applications and I compile them with gcc and tada, a nice application!

Using the command line nothing beats Clang. Nicely syntax colored and organized, as well as intelligent error output. It's even smart enough to do stuff like insert obviously missing semi-colons and keep compiling intelligently rather than just falling on it's face and stopping the compile.

I usually program on Ubuntu where I have a variety of text editors (Gedit, Sublime Text, Emacs, GVim, etc. What I use depends on my mood at that time.) and compile with like, the latest version of GCC. Then I have some mercurial repository where I sync my stuff and download it on my Mac and Windows computers to compile the program there too. I use makefiles, but I'm thinking on switching to CMake.

And Clang is nice, but it doesn't support C++11 initializer lists >:(

And its C++ library support on Windows is poor <­/­3 I like it when I'm on Ubuntu though, it compiled itself faster than GCC could compile it <3

Yeah, it needs to catch up a bit, but if you're just throwing together something that doesn't need much fancy C++11 stuff you can use it.

Heheh, people using C++. Java is so much cleaner.

@NVI : That strongly depends on your programming style.
