If you want to work in Linux but need to run Windows software, you may
want to take a look at VMware (http://www.vmware.com/). It's rather
expensive (about $300 if I recall correctly), but I've found it well
worth it. I can do all my coding on Linux, then test on both Linux and
Windows without ever having to reboot. Saves a *whole* lot of time. It
may not be the right option for you, but it's definitely a tool you will
want to know about.

I come from M$ Visual Studio background.

The editors, compilers, etc, are awesome in Linux.

I have still not come across a intuitive graphical debugger.

The only debbuger that came close TotalView from Etnus - its damn expensive.

I have tried DDD, KDevelop, etc.

Any recommendations?


Can't point you in the direction of a really intuitive graphical
debugger, I'm afraid. But I do have a recommendation for you. Why not
help improve an existing one? Pick an open-source debugger that was
close to what you wanted to see, join the mailing list, and start
discussing possible improvements. Tell them your background, and that
you were expecting the debugger to work like *this*, but it did *that*
instead. Help them make it more intuitive. If they don't get feedback
from users, how will they know what the users were expecting the tool to
do?

Not that I'm an anti-Unix/Linux person, but the tools you mention are
equally available for other platforms, including Windows.

VIM:
http://www.vim.org/download.php#pc

CVS:
http://www.cvsnt.org/
http://www.tortoisecvs.org/
http://www.wincvs.org/

Python:
http://www.python.org/

ls/cp/mv/grep/...
http://www.cygwin.org/

This one is UNIX emulation built for Windows.
Well, anyway, just wanted to point that out.
Yes, the tools are often available, though the quality or usefulness
can vary. (I know -- my first year at this job I had to use windows,
so I installed cygwin and kde 1.1.2 (twm is worse) and used that. In
many ways it wasn't as good as a real unix system, but it was the best
I had then) Still, the usage style is still UNIX :-). Most Windows
people look for all-in-one programs (IDEs and such) and tend not to
plug-n-play with combinations of tools.
Other than that, Unix/Linux is a bloody great platform. I'm in the
process of learning to use it (Debian) and I love its transparency.
If it wasn't for specific software, I would have a single-boot Linux
system.


Great! :-). (I like debian as well)
Oh, btw, the .sig is randomly generated automatically. Just for one
more remark -- typical UNIX design in software (examples like mutt or
tin) is for the user to specify a program to run which will provide,
via the pipe interface, and delegate the actual generation to a
dedicated program. This sort of design and thinking is what I meant
by "UNIX" is the development tool. (that or you develop on unix and
test everywhere, which is pretty much what I did with the wxPython
school project I mentioned earlier that was tested (and ran) on Debian
and Win2k)
