how do I use fhe .devpak files?
It's just that I've seen them on the Bloodshed site but dunno how to use them or what they're for. Hope you tell me about them or where to find information.
Sometime ago someone opened a discusion for a possibility to create a FAQ for Dev-C++, is someone working on it?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Download latest Dev C++ compiler.
Dev C++ 4 I think does not work with .devpack files
Dev C++ 5 does.
So that when you double click .devpack file it will install it automatically.
Install Dev C++ 5

Some folks are working on their own versions, and they should be good. If you are using the 4.9.x series of Dev, you can get the dev paks through VUpdate. They are packages that have needed include files, libraries etc. to do certain things like graphics, windows programming, gui work etc.
Note that most of the DevPaks are compiled under gcc version 2.95, so many will have issues if you are running with version 3.2 of gcc. New packages that work with 3.2 have started to come out...
When you run VUpdate, if you hold your cursor over a given package (might have to click, its early and my memory is bad any way), it will tell you what a package is about...

So I need VUpdate to install the .devpak files, VUpdate is just in the new Dev-C versions? Because I don't know where it is in my 4 version.
If it's so, I'll have to download the new Dev-C version. Thanks for your answers.

There already is an FAQ for Dev-C++, you can find it at:
