Re: Using C (and Linux!) for Programming (and interfacing with FMS, etc.)

If you decide to use Java, all the build tools (ie. netbeans with ant integrated) are free and cross-platform, and you should be able to build & deploy on the command line with ant once you create the project and the corresponding build.xml with netbeans. I would certainly like to be able to use Linux (and vim especially), but trying to get the Driver Station working on any OS but Windows is more effort than I'm willing to apply, for little actual gain.
