I would also be interested in any IDEs too. I am from the same background (although now moved onto C#, java) so I like not having to get down and dirty with the build process.
Bit of a shock to the system going back to C!

Your way is less convoluted than mine, I actually edit my files on the mac and send them back and forwards between the environment (linux running in a VM).

Some nice IDE would be great (or even eclipse if that was all there was)
