[ILUG] linux programming

Hello I am interested in getting back into c programming but thi time i
think it would be good to try it in Linux.
I have most of the basics of C/C++ (C is much nicer IMO) and i have done
all the usual things
pong, an ai for x's and o's, and i have the main code for a 3d graphics
engine written.
I would like to try and bring the 3D engine code over to linux and fiddle
around with it, but i am unsure of the way to go about this. It was written
using Borland environments and libs so i would need to be able to use
equivilant functions under linux. Also is there a nice friendly programming
environment (no emacs is not 'friendly') for linux similar to borland's?
with syntax highlighting and possibly a gui? (am i asking too much here).
It's not a problem if there isn't but sometimes i think i am the only
person that finds it easier to work in a GUI.
Anyway i'm rambling now

I never actually wrote a renderer for the 3D engine , is there something
like this already done for linux, also what exactly is MESA?
