You don't need to convert, just use a char:

Code:

printf("c = %c\n", c);

Code:
c = A

Can I do that with strcat? I'm trying to make a string to print to the system with system().

You may be better using sprintf, or if you are using Linux and don't mind your code being unportable you can use asprintf.
