Anybody know where I can get a free compiler? Preferable something I can download off the internet, and not through a p2p thing.

Heya,

A compiler for what? Just C or C++?

Then you can use Cygwin and the GNU compiler that's a part of it. www.cygwin.org

There's another one, but I forgot it's name. I myself always use cygwin.

I've tried that, but how am I suppose to get it to work? What exactly do I unload to my computer? I tried just opening it, but it opened, and shut down immediately.

DJGPP is a compiler, not a program you run on its own. What you do is type "gcc mySourceFile.cpp", and it should compile into a program called mySourceFile.exe.

*edit*

You might be thinking about a text-editor to write your source in. DJGPP should come with RHIDE, which is a fairly good DOS editor... certainly better than notepad

Teratext editor is a nice hilighting text editor for windows, cygwin is a good envirment for no native *nix peopel, it gives you a stabel envorment in the otehr wise unstable windows one
