And for compiling windows executables, you need a compiler that actually targets windows, right? Just because you're using SDL doesn't mean that your program works on all platforms out of the box.

wait :lol:
it's SDL we are talking about right? i have a compiler (mingw) and it still outputs errors when compiling windows executables but spits out .gpe files fine. i will paste the error tonight when i get home.
oh i really appreciate your replies (some people would haven't ignored my noobs questions for long...)

I don't think you can compile for windows using SDL from the SDK, you'll have to get the "non-caanoo" version and point your makefile to it when compiling .exes (I think this is right, I never actually got round to doing this)
