    C Text Editor/Compiler

    Ok, I downloaded a texteditor about a month ago and it had a built in C compiler with it. For some reason, I cannot find the darn program on my puter anymore. I may have uninstalled it, not sure. Does anyone know what I am talking about? I cant remember the name of it.

    Well, I thought it was TextPad, but its not. I cant believe I dont remember.

    Anyway, I downloaded a build of gcc. I have been hearing many good things about it. When I downloaded the tar, it was full of files and folders. What do I do with it? I am pretty sure I have to put a path in the env. var., but I dont know which one. Can someone aid me please? I got version 3.3.3.

    If you want GCC and a decent IDE to go with it then download Dev-C++. It's easier to set up than just GCC anyway.
    My best code is written with the delete key.
