While this may be of uncertain topicality, I would guess that one obvious
answer is GNU Emacs for the appropriate *IX OS <grin>.
Although GNU Emacs for DOS runs into the limitations of the OS when it
comes to interactive debugging with gdb, for example, this is not a
problem with UNIX. In fact, there are some Web sites with documents and
tutorials about how to do C/C++ development and debugging with gcc/gdb
from within Emacs.
Maybe Eli might have some comments here, and the question seems relevant
at least in emphasizing the different between MS-DOS limitations and
limitations of Emacs/gcc/gdb themselves. If djgpp were running in a 32-bit
implementation of DOS that supported multiprocessing, for example, then
the same things possible on a *IX system when it comes to interactive
debugging should also be possible in such a DOS.
