Hi,

OK, so two compilers off the list.
Which other ones can we use?
Normally, it's something like
cc -o program.exe prog.c
cc is the name of your compiler, which may be gcc or cl or ....
-o is what you want to call your executable file, though try /o for something more M$ based.
You're not going to create an executable program without some sort of compiler. No matter what you're doing it has to go through a number of steps to get from text to object code to PE image... How do you plan to do that without a compiler?Quote:

I generally recommend Pelles Cfor C development or Code::Blocks with MinGwfor C and C++ work. Both are free.
A lot of mid-eastern schools are still pounding TurboC. But it makes no sense whatsoever to do so in a world of 64 bit machines.
