I started to program on windows a while ago and now i'm on linux.I was a brand new C++ programmer and could only do very beginers things.Were should I start from scratch on linux programming?:confused:

Your major languages are still C and C++. Depending on what type of programming you want to do will determine both the language and what toolkit you use for GUI/networking. Java is also used a lot for certain applications.

what linux distro/desktop?

if you have KDE, KDevelop is a very nice editting environment.

what kind of c++ were you programing? console or form apps?

[elfshadow14]

I have Kubuntu which has kde.And I was very beginner I could only make simple math programs like temp converters:p.


UPDATE
WOW kdevelop is wonderful but I need help.I tryed helloworld and it didn't work.It wouldn't compile the same way windows does.But I tryed python and it really cool for scripting.

Is KDevelop free for commercial use though?

[WingedPanther]

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: KDevelop is really just a text editor. It's license only limits what you can do with the code in KDevelop. What you do with the text you create is totally up to you. Also, KDevelop does NOT include a compiler, although it integrates with GCC quite nicely. GCC license has an exception for linking to libgcc, that allows you to write commercial software.
