Visual Studio isn't like that, it's big and bulky, and IMHO it shouldn't be so readily accepted.

Anyhow, it seems that you're looking for something like Code::Blocks. There is pre-package that is bundled with MinGW, a compiler, as well. You should just be able to install it and away you go.
Thanks, everyone.

Yes, Elysia, I have been to the list linked by Mozza. Code::Blocks is one of with the most "Yes's" there. Will try it, I think.
