I tend to use Code Crusader or XEmacs in Linux, I've been using Code
Crusader for my HTDig stuff.  Its not the most fully featured IDE out
there, but fairly easy to get up and running with, a functions dropdown
box to jump around, and a sweet C++ object dependancy browser. you can
find it at 

http://www.newplanetsoftware.com/jcc/

XEmacs(or GNU emacs) has a thing called the speedbar which will list
class methods and functions in a C/C++ file, a click and it jumps you to
it, plus you can use imenu and etags to jump around, pretty much like a
regular IDE.

If you've got the cash to shell out, Sniff+(not the free one, the full
blown, the free one is so crippled its pretty much the same as CC, but a
memory hog to boot) is the best thing out there. but really, really
expensive.  You may also consider SourceNavigator from Cygnus, but I'm
not a fan.  Most of it was wrote in TCL/TK, which if fine for some
things, but slllooooooowwww, IDE's are supposed to be snappy, quick,
responsive, this is none of those, plus there XRef(which functions are
calling which funcitons) doesn't list them right, it does them in
alphabetical order, not the order in which they where called.

Sniff+ is from www.takefive.com 

you can find cygnus at www.cygnus.com  (yes it is the company redhat
just bought)

if you find you like the looks of SourceNavigator I've got a copy I will
sell you for half price($150 US i think).
