My copy of Sams TY C++ came with crappy
Borland C++ 3.1.

1. Get DJGPP at the Zip Picker.
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/
2. Install DJGPP according to readme.1st
3. Set the path and DJGPP environment variables
properly in autoexec.bat; then restart DOS.
4. Change to your program's folder, and type
this into a DOS prompt:

gcc hello.c -o hello.exe

5. run hello.exe

Hope this helps.
