Don't laugh.

Please, don't.

Every Language I try to take, Java, C#, even BASIC, I can make the program....

But it takes me days to compile.

I can't find a compiler, or when I do, It makes my go through about 60 lines of MS-DOS, and Then I can make a program which can say my name.

It is so sad, and embarassing, since I am using QBASIC, and I can run it through, but can't compile it. I can't find any compiler that works, if there is one. Please help!

Didn't you know there's no such thing as compiling? It's all in your mind man.

Dude... my hands are HUGE! They can touch anything but themselves... oh.

Nah, just get QB4.5 at http://www.geocities.com/aliphax

??

Get a proper package of QB4.5.

If you search hard enough you will find it.

Open QB.EXE and then open or type in your program.
Press RUN > COMPILE TO EXE in the menu (or something like that). Select STAND ALONE EXECUTABLE probably, enter an name less than 8 digits followed by ".exe" and then press OK.

Easy peasy.

Other languages: get an IDE. For c/c++? Dev-C++ or MSVC++.

I know what you mean about c# compilers. I had the same trouble. I tried at least ten nd none worked.

DJGPP and RHIDE still not working for me. But compiling isnt that hard =)

Have you set the right paths in the Options->Environment menu? Or can you describe the problem?

JHang, try these:
QBasic: QB45 or QB71
C++: MSVC++ 6.0
Java: MSVJ++ or VCafe

I like these best.

Well, I have set the paths correctly and djgpp works nicely when i compile from the DOS prompt but it doesnt compile in RHIDE. It gives me an error - "Don't know how to build test.o from d:/rh/bin/test". This is the exact error =(
