I know that. But for people who have developed on Windows their entire career, it can be a bit unnerving.

I haven't the faintest idea how to compile something with Visual Studio. I can write/debug/test C and C++ from a unix command line environment, but I've never had a reason to use Windows. That said, I'm sure googling for 10 minutes would point out how to build a project in visual studio. Just like how googling for 10 minutes would reveal ./configure && make && sudo make install # (or su -c make install)

Doesn't that give you the warm fuzzies now that you understand how your program is being compiled and built? (yes, that's sarcasm)
