My apologies if this is a silly question....

Deschamps:
You could also begin an empty project (or add an empty file to your current project), if you wish. Or edit the file and project properties generated by the C::B wizard and save it as an "user template", so you could begin your default console projects using your own preferences and contents.

As a suggestion: wizards are only like a 'shortcut' for using default files and projects without creating them from scratch each time, and so don't waste time in those "basic" routines. But creating empty projects and files from scratch, and specifying the project' properties and build targets by hand, is a better way to learn programming using C::B, I think.

Regards.

That was my yes   :lol:

Luckily, the wizards will no longer overwrite an already existing main.cpp (thanks to Martin).
That was one thing that got me many times in the past.

Tip: You can simply delete the file from the c or cpp subdirectory (whichever you use) inside your templates/wizards folder, and it will not be "generated" for every new project (actually, it's copied).
Even better, though: you customise this for any number of files with whatever names you want. For example, if you want each of your programs to have the files "app.cpp", "app.h", and "resources.xml", you can just drop these into the folder, and the wizard will copy the files to every newly created project and will add them to the project, too.

Wow, seriously? It runs on that?

Jeeproxx:
Ya Man!!

It runs like a champ on the XO! I had Eclipse installed but MAN... WAAAAy to heavy. I even stripped it down to a vanilla install and just no good.

C::B runs AWESOME on the XO!! I've been hackin on it pretty hard and really have it tuned out now. I haven't tried to "Sugarize" C::B and probably won't (Sugar is the desktop env.). I using xfce and honestly it runs better, more efficiently,
and offers more functionality then Sugar.

Anyways, thanks so much for the help. Sorry for being snippy. You know how some open source forums can get kinda....
hhhmmm.... less then courteous? I'm sure you know what i mean! lol
