Now that I am currently encouraged to use linux (after my windows machine decides to slow right down after 5 minutes use), I have discovered the fun of developing with it.
I have code:blocks, scite, meld, gimp, pasmo :)

has anyone tried z88dk with linux?

I did a year ago, with success.
Tried sdcc also but the resulting binary did not work.

I did not want to have to do things manually, and I also wanted to be able to deploy it easily on any other Linux, so I wrote makefiles for that purpose and made a tiny package.
See cpcitor/cpc-dev-tool-chain · GitHub, an embryo of an integrated C or ASM development toolchain for the Amstrad CPC platform (or emulator). Designed for quick start on Linux (or similar) systems : get a copy, run "make" and get a DSK ready to run into the emulator. It even downloads and compiles tools (the cross-compiler, iDSK) if needed.
Had a CPC since 1985, currently software dev professional, including embedded systems.

I made in 2013 the first CPC cross-dev environment that auto-installs C compiler and tools: cpc-dev-tool-chain: a portable toolchain for C/ASM development targetting CPC, later forked into CPCTelera.
