If you want to learn to program in C, C++ or Fortran, then gcc is the compiler you want. I would recommend Emacs over XEmacs, but only because I use Emacs and know its power and utility. If you want to learn a higher level language, you might want to look at Python. Emacs would work with that too. What language you want to work in would drive the compiler options. Jim
I would like to know where to start in Linux programing- I started to read some information on text editors, what do I need to know , also info on compilers? Can I use the installed XEmacs on 6.3 or do I need gcc and gcc frontend to start?
Thanks Darrell PS- I am a newbie to Linux and starting programming VB-only for my job, but I want a broader base.
