Well adam,
to edit you program, there are many text editors you can use,
me personally prefers the Midnight Commander editor, since it supports C\C++
syntax, in order to edit with this editor,
you should first create an empty file(Use 'touch file_name.c'. or 'touch
file_name.cpp' for C++), then launch the Midnight Commander(type 'mc'),
then choose your empty file and press F4.
To compile your file, use
'gcc -g(for debuging) -o output_file_name source_filename', to compile C
programs,
or
'g++ -g(for debuging) -o output_file_name source_filename', to comple C++
programs.
Regards,
-Amir Hardon.
