    Dev-C++ isn't a compiler.. mingw is the compiler behind the Dev-C++ IDE. I use gcc on linux most often. mingw is a windows port of gcc.

    I think cygwin is also bundeled with Dev.
    But I like jGrasp with mingw more.

    Depends... in Windows, I use the Visual Studio compiler...

    under Linux, I use the gcc compiler..

    but there isn't an option for gcc (besides other)

    I think you're right...

    I use Dev occasionally, MSVC occasionally, and Dynamic C all the time...

    I use MSVC++ 6.0 for any real coding and Borland C++ 4.52 for answering questions about code that use Borland supported features liberally since MSVC++ has no hope of compiling that kind of stuff

    Note that MSCV++ 6.0 will soon become MSVC++.NET (yay)

    I'm using several compilers. Though I voted GCC since it is the one I use most.

    Compilers should be free. Good programming tools shouldn't be just for the rich. Same with computers and operating systems.

    Agreed. I have (if we are limiting our topic to C/C++ compilers):

    3 Borland flavors, 1 Microsoft (6 standard), Mingw/cygwin Dev-C++ (mingw updated significantly), gcc, DJGPP, and powerC (don't ask, it is pretty useless, but needed it for work).

    [edit] All of which I use at least once in a while.. though not so much DJGPP or powerC anymore.[/edit]

    gcc is totally free... and there are tons of editing tools for Linux...

    however if you're stuck with Winblows options... you can always find them for free if you know where to look and you don't mind pron...

    That's not free, that's stealing.
