VS6 is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Some IDEs for Linux are Anjuta, CodeWarrior, Eclipse, etc...

The easiest way is just to do what you would do on any system. Use a text editor
and a compiler. I get by using VIM (www.vim.org) and compiling w/ the GNU set of tools (gcc, g++, make, etc...).

Here's a good ref.: http://www.redhat.com/support/wpapers/devintro.pdf

And just search around sf.net and freshmeat.net
