hmm ok here i m to give u a small syntax tutorial!
just log on to cygwin shell! and go to the directory, that u have .c files in.
just use the following command to compile it.
#gcc file.c -o file
and it will compile the file to "file.exe" ;)

I think what u are talking about is the 'make file' command where u complie multiple .c files which belong to the same program. What it does is makes use of the timestamp to check whether the file was modified ... if yes, then it compiles that file with the rest, otherwise it makes use of a previously compiled file. The thing is ... I can't seem to be able to recall the syntax for this command .... :huh:
Will find out and let u know ...

Hope it helps

Dose cygwin has a GUI compiler for C?
no, but why would you need one? typing gcc file -o file.exe is simpler then opening a gui program creating a 'project' and so on. I believe cygwin does come with emacs however, which will color code your files.

compile iroffer .c to exe in cygwin? just download the windows binary off the iroffer website. unless you went in and modified the code to suit your need better... but you asking what u did, makes me think thats not the case.
