This one has been around for a little while, but I've never seen a post here
about it. Features (copied from their website) listed below. It's still a work
in progress (the version just available is 1.0-RC1), but it is working quite
well for me. Actually imports MSVC++ projects and compiles them (the few I've
tried) coupled with Microsoft's freeware command line compiler and SDK. Worth a
look for you compiler-types. Nice IMHO.

www.codeblocks.org

Highlights:

* Open Source! GPL2, no hidden costs.
* Cross-platform. Runs on Linux or Windows (uses wxWidgets).

Download page at:
http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml

Without a compiler:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/c...1.exe?download

With MinGW compiler:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/c...w.exe?download

I just tried the EasyNews download at the "without a compiler link" and it
worked fine.

Thanks,
I was getting to the "Select a mirror" and selecting from the
sites at the top of the page and did not see the radio buttons at the
bottom.
