is there any frontend for G++ or something that will add a gui, one thats available through apt-get? i would like to be able to compile C++ stuff without having to go into the command line. it would just be alot nicer to use a graphical thing rather than the terminal. can anyone recommend anything

I'd be surprised if a stand-alone interface exists, although I've seen weirder things in the open-source world. Most IDEs have interfaces to the make utilities built in, which makes the most sense for a graphical interface. Ajunta is probably the most popular example for gnome, but even text editors like vim and emacs do it.

thats just what you want. it compiles with the click of a button that says "compile".

though I dont really get why you want this feature. whats so dificult about typing "g++ filename.cpp -o filename"?

Anjuta is available via apt-get, so is Kdevelop ( KDE required )
