Im trying to do a tutorial and it says to install MinGW to use GCC. I have installed minGW to my external hdd and also to my internal hdd.
The tutorial says that i must add the compiler to the PATH environmental variables so i can run it better in cmd.
Im adding "c:\mingw\bin" (without the quotes) to the end of the my path variable. But when i run cmd and type in "gcc" like the tutorial saysim getting this message:
" 'gcc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."
The tutorial says that if an error message comes up, to repeat the step. However, i have followed the step 5 times and the same message comes up.
Should i use a different compiler? do all compilers run in the Command line or CMD?
im really confused because im just starting out, like a previous post of mine has stated already.
Thanks for any help.
