I don't use an IDE, but assuming you're on Windows, both Dev-C++ and Eclipse are popular open-source IDEs. (And before someone objects, Eclipse is *not* just for Java anymore).

Any good reason why not using an IDE? I used notepad before to explore the mame code but now i'm getting more serious with it notepad seems to have some serious restrictions. To really understand how things work i need a good integrated debugger so i can step through the code, and i need the editor to understand the code so i can easily see declarations and jump to other sections etc. I tried them all (the open-source ide's) but eclipse with CDT seems to work best (its stable and very functional), configured to use mingw and custom makefile. I just keep getting messages from the scanner complaining about code bits it doesnt understand, like the #error preprocessor directive, and some other things. Has anybody used eclipse with CDT for Mame? And if so, can anybody tell me the correct configuration for it?
