Hi !

I am a newbie and have been working in windows XP and bloodshed dev-c++ compiler b4, but recently I have made the decision and managed to switch to linux. I started by using SUSE 9.1 personal linux on Vmware workstation.

I apologize for my dumbness, but I have no clue to create and compile a c program in SUSE. Can anyone please give me a few steps on how to do that.


I opened up something called root shell and wrote the following command

" cpp pathname/filename.c"

I got a message saying cannot find file stdio.h. I am tottally lost about this,can any please give me the right way to to write a program and compile it. There is also something called kwrite and notepad. vi. I have no idea which to use to create a program.

Any help would be appreciated !!!
