Step 2Setting Up the Project Parameters
iImage Information

This dialog presents you with a lot of options. We'll explore those options one at a time as we need to use them. Don't panic, it only looks hard! The screen shot in this section shows how to set up a project for almost all console mode programs. These are the bread and butter of learning how to use an IDE in general and Dev-C++ specifically. You will almost always find that learning a language such as C or C++ begins with "DOS" applications. It is all you need to start creating some fairly complex programs, console or "DOS" at first and later on, GUI with Win32 API or other extensions to the basic language.
Make sure your dialog box is filled in like the one below and hit the "Ok" button. Then you should be ready to go to the next step.
