Help me please someone. I downloaded borland c++ 5.0 or what ever installed al the files but i don''t know how to run it will some one please help????!!!

The downloadable compiler is a command line compiler, which means that you need to write your code in a text editor, like Notepad, MS-DOS Editor, or something you download (do a search for Editor99, its pretty cool). Then you need to go to the command line, and run the compiler from there. This means that if the compiler is called bcc32 (which I think it is) and your source file is called foo.cpp, you should type:

bcc32 foo.cpp

or something like that. If you type bcc32 by itself and press enter, it should give you a list of command line parameters, that will change the way your code is compiled.

I know this wasn''t in depth, but I hope I helped a little bit.

Download V IDE from www.ObjectCentral.com (it''s GPL)

It doesn''t look really good but it surely helps when using the free Borland compiler.
