Can Dev-c Cross Linux/Windows Platform?
What does this mean?
If it asks whether Dev-C++ runs on both platforms, see the FAQ, the basic answer is no, Dev for PC is written in Delphi.

What do you mean by "Cross Linux/Windows Platform"?
-Dev-C++ isn't technically a compiler; it's a frontend. A stable Dev does not exist for linux =-(
-gcc (mingw 2.95/3.2) is the default compiler on Dev-C++
-gcc (2.95/3.x) is the default on linux
-they should work together alright
-Dev is written in Delphi. Delphi can compile on linux (www.borland.com/kylix)
-It might be a headache to port Dev to linux though; in theory its possible
-the gui doesnt live on both platforms, but the code written in dev should live on both platforms with little or zero modification (depends on what you're doing)
