[ useful discussion and description of using RSXNT's IDE ]

Nobody will (should) get angry, since this is an important issue. The
bad news is that writing an IDE takes a lot of work, but the good news
is that there at least two independent on-going projects for mingw32 
(and which should be usable for cygwin as well with some minor tweaks): 
  
  1. Dr. Wampler's V-based IDE called "vide" 
       http://www.objectcentral.com/
  
  2. Al Stevens' of Dr Dobbs MFC-based IDE Quincy99 
       http://www.midifitz.com/alstevens/quincy99/

Both are free and provide a very good starting point for those who want
to help out. Hint hint ...

Mumit
