Looking for a good contest IDE

I tend to use codeblocks at the moment to write c++ code, I am however looking for an IDE that is more contest oriented. Anyone knows a good alternate?

Albeit not an IDE but I still feel it should be mentioned, notepad++, clean and effective, ihmo of course.

What OS are you using? There are great free ones for mac & linux, but I don't know about windows.

May I suggest DevC++ Dan ?

It is pretty good with contest programming. No hassle of creating a project and building it...

Apparently peter wen also uses it...

If you want a tool for quickly writing fast code, I suggest ocamlopt. Wink

You may not. DevC++ is horrid and anyone who mentions it again will be shot. On windows if you are using C++ *the only* IDE you should ever use is MSVC++. That is all.
