I wanted to program some shell scrips for the Windows environment in C or C++, not sure how to do that, but I have a few beginner examples. Anyway, I used a Mac (of course) and was told I could do this and compile them in Xcode, but I find, even having just downloaded v3.2.6 from Apple (I am using Snow Leopard) that the Compile menu s completely greyed out.
I read online that it could well be the GCC compiler I am missing but I don't get any of that, plus, I've just installed the Xcode developer tools fresh and I still have the problem.
Here is the code I am trying out:
Should be simple right, well, I can't compile it so I don't know if it'll work.
I said I wanted to code for Windows and execute shell commands I know, but was led to believe I could do this all on a Mac, which I think would be nicer.
Am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks in advance.

cin.get();
