I've been a cygwin user for quite a while, but I still consider myself a 
newbie. I have access to Visual C++ 6.0, but not permanently. I want to be 
able to compile c++ code that I can easily distribute without licensing 
problems (because I write software for a University research lab, at some 
point may want to write shareware software, etc). Currently I only need to 
compile for Windows computers, but I would like to be able to compile, or at 
least write code that can be compiled, on both Win and Linux systems. For 
this reason I have been using cygwin g++ with the -mno-cygwin flag. Lately 
I'm wondering if this is really the best option for me. I would appreciate 
any input that anybody can give me about different development enviroments, 
compilers, etc.
