I had the same question and I have been to the link. My question would be how? How do I create the text file hello.c, I tried it with word pad, saving it as hello.c, then opened my command prompt and typed in dmc hello. I thought my computer was going to fall of the table from laughing so hard. Needless to say I got a reply that dmc is not recognized as an internal or external command.....etc.....
