If you don't want to use a "complicated" IDE, you can use a simple editor 
(like kate) in combination with Makefiles. Writing Makefiles for small 
projects it quite easy. For a very small tutorial on how to write Makefiles, 
have a look at

http://users.actcom.co.il/~choo/lupg/tutorials/writing-makefiles/writing-makefiles.html

If you need more information about Makefiles have a look at the make 
info-pages or ask google. There are more good tutorials on the net.
