Whatcha SHOUTING for???
When you installed, if you used the default installation or told it to install the 'development' packages, you probably have the GNU compilers.
gcc is for C and g++ is for C++
If you are used to compiling on UNIX systems, then gcc and g++ should work pretty much the same.
I would expect that you can do "man g++" to see some documentation.

I am not familiar with the Lycoris/Redmond distro, but if you cannot invoke gcc or 'locate gcc', then it seems likely the gnu stuff was not installed. If Lycoris is rpm or deb based, try invoking the relevant utility and add the development packages.

Greetings
As Don said g++ will work just fine, but if you like working in GUI enviroment I suggest you should try KDevelop, comes with most of linux distros, or Kylix which is Borland's C++ Builder for linux. Need to try it soon.
