    Most people here use an IDE (such as Code::Blocks or even DevCpp - which is not very good but enough for single-file small programs etc), not Notepad - although it is useful to be able to compile from command prompt.
    I might be wrong.

    Thank you, anon. You sure know how to recognize different types of trees from quite a long way away.

    Don't they have a vim for windows? They do and I bet it works! Replace your notepad with vim. Vim is the most incredible piece of software I've ever seen, bar none -- web browser, vice city, whatever.

    ps. just ignore the GUI parts, it's all devolution
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
    3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
    cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge
