Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Hi, you will gain it with a .Net Framework implementation. I suggest you Microsoft .Net 2.0 because of the more rich implementation of the standard (which has more things to be implemented yet). By installing it, you will have csc.exe file in the framework folder :) You can find it searching ".Net Framework" in MSDN download at msdn.microsoft.com You may prefer for yourself Mono (implementation of the same standard for Linux, which proceed at a lesser peace of Microsoft's one), BSD implementation, and other few which I may have overlooked. Each one has its own peace and support from the vendor or the community (Microsoft has both), and has gain its own per-cent of the whole standard implemented. You have to Google for Mono since I do not remember the address. With Microsoft .Net 3.0, just released, you gain a larger implementation of the standard as well a few non-standard implementation Microsoft has decided to put on. This is not proper a new version of the platform, then, but a whole set of additional implementation (however so cool!). Depending on wich kind of application you are looking for, there are some free and even Open Source IDE you may want to consider for gain a better experience that just the compiler itself. Hope this help,

If your system has .NET 2.0 then you probably will find csc.exe inside C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 :)
