Try MinGW, it is free and open-source (It is indeed a port of GCC).
Borland and Microsoft released their old C compilers for free use (not
open-source), but not their libraries.
There is also Cygwin (another GCC port), but the executables it
generates needs the 1Mbyte "cygwin1.dll" and Cygwin is much harder to
get used than MinGW.


I personally use MinGW, which is a damn good compiler. You may use also
MSys, which is a POSIX environment to run MinGW inside.

MSys is a shell which you can use instead of the windows command prompt
and that understands LINUX/UNIX commands and comes with many of the
command line tools available on these platforms. Usually you would build
cross-platform packages under MSys the same way you do under Linux.
Indeed you will think you are using a Linux command prompt.


Best regards,
