like i already once posted, i would love to have agent ransack running natively under linux on my ubuntu. i then settled for regexxer, but down the line i didnt like it. i even eventually started to code one myself. but then i found two quite decent search tools. my favorite one is kfind. seems that program is the closest you can get to agent ransack. at least it fullfills nearly every of my wishes in a search tool, so thats how i search now. a more native-gnome approach would be the program gnome-find. though i think kfind is faster to use.

I really dig Qt Creator (though my first euphoric stance has already relativated itself a little). but because the IDE still is somewhat of an underdog, help in the net is somewhat rare. therefore i decided to give a short summary about how one can setup some important settings for custom makefile projects . (they also might come in handy for all other people using the IDE). all my descriptions are based on my qt creator IDE version 1.2.1 used under ubuntu 9.04. i am pretty sure some posted points will save people out there some time. *) getting your source files into your project your project will contain a .files file. open it up and put inside all additional files you want to have. example : your project is located in /home/f/sources/testApp/ and you want to have a file included in /home/f/sources/CommonSourcecode/foo.cpp Then add ./CommonSourcecode/foo.cpp to .files and create a symbolic link in /home/f/sources/testApp/ pointing to /home/f/sources/CommonSourcecode/ done! *) setti

i recently came across a "new" IDE for C/C++ development. well, is "Qt Creator" really new? not exaclty, so lets call it the underdog of IDEs then. but because of my dissatisfaction with everything apart from visual studio i've so far used, i immediatly tried out the new 1.2.1 version of Qt Creator. and boy, i am amazed! this is really a great IDE for developing C++ applications. The name is a bit irritating because it implies its purpose is to create QT apps. well, maybe it is, but its also very good for "normal" apps. till now i have used eclipse. i hate it but i sticked to it because of its good parser and syntax highlighting. plus the debugger is capable of showing you the base classes members of your instances and resolves the type. this made it the best IDE i knew so far. but now i am more and more working with qt creator. so here a small comparison between qt creator and eclipse of the cons for me of both IDEs Qt Creator vs Eclipse CDT Qt Creat
