Seemingly everybody forgot about fp, which AFAIK has a very decent TUI 
(Text based user interface) and can work locally with gdb on a system 
that does not offer a GUI.

I never used it, but years ago I use Borland/Turbo Pascal for rather 
simple stuff, and colleagues of mine create very complex programs with 
same.

I suppose fp can be used nicely on a headless ARM device via telnet or ssh.
