Well, just forget it... I have not intentionally tryed to be ironic or complain in a rude way about GCC in the face of GCC users and sorry if that's how I came across. I sincerely thought that since the source code I want to edit was mentioned having been compiled in GCC is maybe would have to be compiled in GCC or at least that that would be the shortest way to success. I might have mixed the concept of a program language (C) with the concept of a tool to work with it (GCC) thinking that then there should be command and windows style application of this GCC. Now I think I clearly understand GCC has really "nothing to do" with the fact it has originally been compiled in GCC and written in C. It's not a "C-program", compiled in GCC wich for less skilled user is dificult and therefore could use the windows style version ex MinGW of GCC. It's rather a "C-program" and thereÂs a number of compilers, some command line style and among theese GCC and some windows style ones like MinGW and really windows style ones like Code::Blocks etc. I guess it's have not been clear enough to me even thou I have been on GCCs site Googled on it etc. It's a lot of information and terms etc and what I might have needed was a simple, clear explanation "for dummies" of GCC, what it is etc. It's actually a thing I tryed to find thru Google "GCC for Dummies". Thought I understood some of it but that I got stuck somehow somewhere and so I thought a forum then could actually clear things out even if sensing it might not be the truely right place for it. Didn't have any other ideas thou. Maybe the question to have asked would have been What is really GCC and for what do you or should you use it? But now I think I get it enough to say it a closed/resolved matter. So sorry and thanks. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/GCC-GUI----tp30541740p30542871.html Sent from the gcc - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
