g++ should be already there...

there is p2c in the repos, but if it's not what you want, you can try slackware repos, or get a package from linuxpackages.net

I moved your post away from the Howto's. It's not meant for asking questions, but for sharing information on how to get certain things done. Look at some of the posts in the Howto section to understand what I mean.

You don't install a programming language. For c++, gcc-g++ is the standard compiler in Linux. You can use pretty much any text editor you want to program in. Since you're using SOHO, I suggest Kate for simple "hello world"- type short programs. It's in Menu->Utilities->Editors->Kate. It has great highlighting for a lot of programming languages, including c++ and Pascal. If you need an integrated development environment, I suggest kdevelop. There's a package in the "extra" repository.

Good luck!

Which version must I download and instal?

You can find a package in our repository. You can use gslapt to download it (it's in menu -> system -> Gslapt Package Manager ) , or use slapt-get instead

Code:

slapt-get --update && slapt-get --install --no-dep kdevelop

Usually, if you find Slackware packages that match the version VL was built on (you can check with "cat /etc/slackware-version") they work just fine. For some reason though, the kdevelop site doesn't seem to offer a Slackware package.
