I am new to c,not new to programming,but i know about
as much about c as a monkey with greasy fingers knows
about shaving a lions nuts with a straight razor.(sorry :P)

anyhow,i got a couple of questions about djgpp,rhide and c.
------------------------------------
1.)how can i get rhide to make the .exe files go to a
specfic directory like:
c:\djgpp\projects\  ?

example...

i got a .c file called "xxx.c" its location is

c:\djgpp\projects\xxx.c

and i want the exe to be

c:\djgpp\projects\xxx.exe

and can i make rhide do this with any abitrary(sp?) file.

like if i open
c:\stuff\tutor.c

and i want the exe to be in the same directory
that i open the file from
like:

c:\stuff\tutor.exe

can i make rhide do this?how?

----------------------------
2.i save all my settings to a .gpr file with rhide,but
i want to make these settings default for when i load
rhide...how do i do that?

i figure there are some command line arguments that will 
load a .gpr file,such that i could make a shortcut in win95
but i dont know how yet....

-----------------------------
3.I am new to c so this stuff is overwhelming me
  a little,but i did make a hello world program:
  I read a few cryptic tutorials and picked up
  some basic ideas and after a buttload of forgetting
  the "{" thingies and ";" thingies and other stuff
  i finnaly ended up with this....:

==============
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int x=0;
int y=0;

  main()
{
  void clrscr(void);

  for(x=0;x<10;++x)
  {
     for(y=0;y<10;++y)
     {
        printf ( "%d",y);
        printf ( "  " );
     }
     printf ( "\n\n" );
  }
}
==============


It's purpose is to clear the screen
and then  print this to the screen:

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

 
It works fine,but running it from the dos prompt,
it doesnt seem to clear the screen...what am i doin
wrong?

my next step is to make it wait till a key is pressed
and then clear the screen and print something else..but
i will learn that on my own...

just if someone can tell me if i am using
  void clrscr(void); properly?,cause i dont understand
the syntax in c quite yet,i think i am doing something
wrong....

-------------------------------
4. where's the darn faq for this ng...?

---------------------------------

5. any pointers for learning c from scratch.

--------------------------------


I am great fullfor anyones help and hope
i didnt ask to many questions at once....
