Using gcc to compile C file

[JRace]

Well you've mastered the art of commenting code.

Commenting code has always been a chore for me, so my own comments tend to be brief and for myself, and used only when needed.

Friends have told me that I would make a good teacher, and my response usually starts with a cringe.  I've always had trouble expressing my thoughts in ways that other people can understand.

The MinGW compiler installed with QB64PE is perfectly functional, so there is no need to waste several hundred megabytes of disk space on another MinGW version unless you need a specific compiler.

-static: This tells the linker to statically link the program (build needed functions from the Standard library into the EXE) instead of requiring external library DLLs.  I hate when I run a program and Windows tells me that I need certain .DLLs.  (Note that static linking will cause your EXE file to be bigger)

This one should be good for Scintilla code editor
I saw some guys from FreeBasic use this method to build code editors.
