To use C with Linux, you'll need gcc and all it's deps to be installed ... To type your source code, you can use what in French is called 'Editeur avancé' (it's something like 'Advanced editing tool'). It's not specific for C, but it works fine !

Every Linux distribution comes with a C\C++ compiler and libraries and tools. Check your Linux CD and make sure you install the Development tools. To compile a C program hello.c :

gcc -o hello.exe hello.c

To compile a C++ program:

g++ -o hello.exe hello.cpp

Note that in Linux you don't need to have the ".exe" suffix. It's just there so you know which one is the executable and which is the source file.
