if you make a header file

closed account (4Gb4jE8b)
And import it to the location where your compiler stores it's base header files, will your program be non-portable to other systems when compiled (because they don't have access to the specific header)? I would think not, as the headers are compiled into the program itself right? If so then it wouldn't matter.
If you distribute your program in binary form all source files information is lost, you need only to worry about dynamic libraries

ok... so i'm a newbie... and i kinda have no idea what you just said.

"in binary form"
does this mean just a win32 console? or is this a specific setting necessary to declare?

"you need only worry about dynamic libraries"
I don't know what those are, so i'm pretty sure they aren't in my program.

What i did was made it so that instead of

#include "pause.h" //which i wrote
it became
#include <pause.h>
by moving the source file to the specific directory of my compiler that stores headers

will this cause any problems trying to give this to friends or whatnot?
"in binary form" means the executable program ie: not sourcecode distribution
