You are going to get at least 10 replys to this mail, but lets begin :)

So, the compiler, what Dev-C++ uses, is the GNU Compiler Collection 
(formerly known as the GNU C Compiler). To get info on the compiler 
itself, visit
http://gcc.gnu.org

But you will likely won't get too much info from there, as that is the 
core homepage of GCC. GCC has been ported to many platforms and 
architectures, including Windows. To get info about the Windows port, visit
http://www.mingw.org

MinGW stands for Minimalist GNU for Windows. You will find everything 
you need there.

Oh, and the gcc command line help is: "gcc --help" (double '-')

Hope that helps.
