Code::Blocks lite?

[rogerh]

I find CB to be massive overkill for what I'm doing.

I just need to compile a program with a few common blocks and access to an external graphics package. My main need is speed because I'm processing very large files.

Is there a smaller version of CB better suited to this?

notepad and cmd with gcc?

[rogerh]

No, I want the IDE features to handle the mechanics, flagging error, liinking, etc so I can concentrate on the programming part.

What do you mean by large files?
C::B can handle 10-20kloc files do you have bigger source files?

[rogerh]

No, I mean data files. Things like the entire NEIC quake catalog or a 2000 year ephemeris.

Speed counts.

Can you en light us where you think that c::b is to heavy? I have removed half of the plugins i don't need  like the nassi plugin, xp look and fell etc..., and c::b starts fast like notepad++...
If you are processing large files and c::b is slow with them you can try to disable code completition...

but unless you don't say us what your problem is we can't help you...

where counts speed? on compile time?

[rogerh]

CB has a hundred options where I need maybe 5 or 6.

I get lost in the jungle, trying to find what I need, especially when  the docs are so minimal.

CB isn't slow, it's just more than I need. Fortran is doing the work and it's plenty fast. It does in minutes what Perl would take days.

I'm not complaining and it isn't that much of a problem. I just wondered if there was a simpler version around.

People here are not interested in a simpler version. They need full featured IDE.

For something simple probably you can try SciTe. It can build projects and you can type the code.
Vim is another simple example. SublimeText and probably many others.
But probably you won't find answers here, because people here use C::B and nothing else if possible  ;D
