Hello all,
I would like to ask what will be the best IDE with line numbering, color coding and auto-complete on C/C++ if possible.
Thanks in advance.

I use Netbeans. There's a configuration available with a C/C++ compiler. Many people use Eclipse, which is another good one. You can also look at Code::Blocks. Those are just a few suggestions. The "best" one is going to be the one you like best, based on your preferences.

vim and gvim

emacs is pretty popular as well but I never really cared for it, nano has syntax highlighting now as well.

Saying you can optimize a program is like saying you understand how a program works on every level of every facet on a specific machines configuration.

I feel compelled to point out that these are more strictly editors rather than IDE's. If you want full IDE functionality in vim, you're going to have to do a bit of work. Here's a collection of articles I found that might help in this: Use Vim like an IDE - Vim Tips Wiki

I use QtCreator, Kate and sometimes vim.
I like QtCreator because I can use it on MacOS and Windows too.
Kate is easy and fast
Vim for console (for example through the ssh)

I use Geany and jEdit as editors, than compile via commandline.
