You still need to download a compiler, even if you want to use the command line. Unlike Linux, which ships with gcc, there is no compiler included in Windows. Since you have to download something anyway, I recommend DevC++ or Visual Studio Express for C++, then you'll have the option of using the nice IDE or the command line.
Reply:DevC++ can be found at http://www.bloodshed.net/devcp...


Visual Studio Express at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-... (the beta for 2008 is up, but I would recommend using 2005 for now) Report It
