RE: [Dev-C++] include files those with a .h?

[Ioannis V. <no...@ya...>]

#include <merlin.h> makes compiler to look at the default places for the
header file (e.g. in Dev-C++ the include directory).

#include "merlin.h" makes compiler to look at the same directory with your
source code file to find merlin.h.

#include "\temp\merlin.h" looks for merlin.h in directory \temp. (I think
Dev-C++ uses the UNIX notation for directories /, so in this case it is
#include "/temp/merlin.h").
