* Linux Cross Compile, of course
Cygwin is slow and difficult to set up. MingW is a bit better.

* GVIM/Notepad++ on Windows (Vim on Linux)
Eclipse and Netbeans are not so great for plain C.

* gdb/valgrind on linux to debug.

Cygwin plus Eclipse with CDT.
Crimson Editor as a general purpose editor. :)
