:). Actually, I use both TCIDE and GCC. When I have to write ANSI C code, I use GCC. All that I can do, currently, is write code in Kate / Kwrite, compile it, generate the file for executing the program and use the -time parameter while doing this. It was a bit difficult initially, due to "bad" habits of the IDE. ;) But I haven't involved myself completely, for forking a project (irrespective of its size) in C, using GCC. > You know what, you if you can get RHIDE to > work, you won't > miss TCIDE too much.

I had heard about KDevelop and Eclipse. > Btw, what about your friends, get them to > move to gcc/g++ even. They are comfortable using TC++ 3.0 on windows. They probably won't give a try using GCC on windows. Therefore I suggested inclusion of a session of GCC as well. Be it on Windows or the Linux distro of their choice. I'm sure, quite a lot of this list's members started with GCC, and they can demonstrate a "How-To" on GCC w. r. t.

The size is in two-digit MB's, I guess, so I had to cancel it. If I save (and I will make an effort) to save MB's for this month's quota, I'll download it and put it on the Mesh repo, next week. -- FSF of India Associate Fellow - http://www.gnu.org.in S K Somaiya College of ASC - http://www.somaiya.edu/sksasc Send a FREE SMS to your friend's mobile from Yahoo!
