Hi Guys,
Im aware that DevCPP is getting old and unsupported. I'm thinking of downloading and swapping to code blocks but I'd like to know if it supports plain old C well first. Any comments/experience?
I don't know anything about code blocks. A lot of people I know are trying the free edition of Microsoft Visual Studio Express for C++.

Never tried Code::Blocks, but VC2005EE is very good too. I think you should try it out.
Pelles C is quite goodÃ, ;)

Or, you might like to try Digital Mars' C compiler...

I should be more clear, I dont want to change compiler, only IDE. I guess I'll try code blocks.
Try Eclipse, with the CDT plug-in.

Sorry to appear a thicko, is Code Blocks an IDE? And are you asking if it's compatible with programming C with?
:-) its almost certainly me thats being thicko or assuming too much about what people psychically know about my question.
I use gcc for intros and I'm happy with it. I use DevCPP as my IDE and I'm not happy with that. So I'd like another IDE I can use instead of DevCPP. I heard code::blocks was the way to go but I didnt know eclipse had got decent C support. Eclipse seems to be *the* IDE of choice these days so I'll look in that direction. I'll post experiences as I'm sure it'll help others around.
Thanks for the advice everyone.
Eclipse is only any good for coding java imho
