Compilers may come with editors, but an editor is not a compiler.

Generally no, not unless you're running a PC emulator on the Unix box.

You could try alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++, but be sure to read the FAQ
before posting questions. Also realise that NO forum is good for
teaching you a language from the basics. Forums can help clarify
specific doubts on specific issues, but there are much better
structured tutorials that can help you learn C as a whole.
