i would suggest makefiles.... get gnumake compiled native for windows (not
cygwin, but from the mingw32 package) and use that with handwritten
makefiles.... most IDEs dont make a good job with autogenerating that type of
things for anything but native applications, if it works decent at all :)
however, if you are doing simple stuff only (ie, one main sourcefile) every
editor should have some option to call compilers (or assemblers or whatever
:=)) specifically for each file extension... if your ide cant do that, delete
it NOW :=D you might probably want to try ultraedit... one of the better
editors for windoze, virtually free, and it has many many users so you can
find tons of hints on the web on how to set it up for whatever you can think
of :o) atleast setting it up for calling external programs, and even for
getting their error output aint hard... used that for gbc programming once
:=) for c-programming "visual slick edit" is also a great editor, but kindof
expensive unfortunatly :=P
