1. Code::Blocks runs on windows too. It uses the same compiler as Dev-C++ which is Mingw
2. IMO means "in my opinion"
3. command line arguments are arguments that is pass to main()

I'd just like to point out that the version of MinGW that ships with the Bloodshed version of Dev-C++ is very old and non-conformant to the standard in many places.

I recommend installing TDM-MinGW seperate of the IDE and configuring the IDE to use that compiler instead as it's more up to date.

The Linux version of MinGW is GCC.... actually it's the other way around. The Windows version of GCC is MinGW.

Dev-C++ uses an archaic version of MinGW. I'd do what darkestfright suggested, more or less.

Install MinGW from here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435
separate of and before the IDE and then configure the IDE to use MinGW.

MinGW GCC 4.5 is out of proposed state now? I'm all over that!
