I can second using Geany as an IDE. Another large plus for it is that it 
is cross platform (I work in both Windows and Linux), cross environment (I 
also code in Python/Sage), very customizable, and even has a version on 
PortableApps for windows so you can take a customized version around on a 
USB stick with ease.

For Linux and Mac, I usually suggest Geany [1] as an alternative to
Gedit. Geany is an intuitive IDE that can send commands to rterm in
the integrated virtual terminal emulator. It provides various features
for project management, source highlighting, code folding, etc.
