you can edit files on the device itself by using pygtkeditor from khertan
it supports formatting for multiple languages.

as for compilers, I use gcc directly on the device everyday, g++ is available as well.
There are some things which limit exactly what you can compile and run however.

You cannot easily run the "configure" stage of mature packages, and there is no easy way to get the dpkg-* programs running.


with the cpu running in its default state, compilation is fairly sluggish, but can also be sped up somewhat to make incremental builds practical.


to get at the correct repository for these tools, you must obtain the binaries from the maemo SDK repository (same one that scratchbox uses)
