awesome that worked. so here's what i did, to anyone else reading it:
-downloaded bloodshed, look at the sticky for the link in the main forum
-unzipped/installed dev-c++
-copy/pasted the code redhead so graciously provided, then compiled it (Execute>compile)
-loaded dos prompt (start>run>cmd then 'ok')
-navigated to the folder where the compiled program is (same name as you saved the project as)
-type name of your program input.txt output.txt
That worked, found my input.txt and outputed it as output.txt, sweeeet
out of curiousity, using C++ is there a way to make it user friendly so someone can just double click it in windows, and then it prompts them to find the file or something to that effect? (some other people besides me who don't know dos or anything might need this some day).
Thanks again
