Well, intellisense in QtCreator is really nice, especially when you learn Qt.

I'm not sure whether Emacs can do intellisense, but anyway QtCreator is very
good for learning IMO, and that's what Nathanael may need.
Intellisense/completion, integrated documentation, etc.. Just download the SDK
and start coding, everything's in it. Emacs wouldn't help in regard to the
learning curve here...
Personally, all these coding aids start to break my concentration after a while,
I prefer the Vim blank page ;), but that's another topic..
Qt is really great. I also highly recommend that
you look at Qt Creator which is
included in the SDK. Although I'm a long time Vim user, I really found this IDE
to be extremely simple and efficient.
Being a long time Vim user is probably _why_ you found it to be so efficient ...
... now if you were an Emacs user, that'd be another matter ... Anyway, aside from Qt (which I also use and endorse)
it might be worth
looking at JUCE (http://www.rawmaterialsoftware.com/juce.php) and NUI
(http://www.libnui.net/). I've never tried either myself but JUCE is
quite widely used for audio applications, including by some Linux
developers. Never really heard anything first-hand about NUI, but it
has a natty website at least.
True, JUCE is really nice, I've used it quite a lot. For instance, it's
certainly better suited for plugins than Qt, as that came out on this thread.
But it's far from being as mature and documented as Qt. JUCE may be funnier though..
