Ok, excuse my ignorance, but I thoroughly enjoy the API for programming in windows, is their any such thing in Linux terms. i.e. I would like the do some java programming and C++ programming in Linux, but is it all in a text editor or is their an api/ide for it?
I have a Forte for Java 4 (pre-Sun One Studio) for linux, but not sure how you install things in linux...well not entirely.
Any suggestions would be appreciated...
