Question about C++ IDEs and WinSioux stationary

I've taken two years of C++ in high school and we always built our projects using the standard DOS window.
I took a semester of C last spring and once again, we always built command-line applications into the DOS window.

I am taking a C++ course again and he's requiring us to turn in output, which requires using something called WinSioux. The IDE I've gotten accustomed to is CodeWarrior 7, the choice of my department it seems.

Appearantly I'm supposed to be able to select a different 'stationary' every time I create a new project in the IDE . I don't have the option of WinSioux and furthermore, I can't find it on the CD or anywhere on the Internet.

Does anyone know what this is and where I could get it?

I could switch compilers and use GCC with cyrgywin if need be. If I do so, I'd still need to find an IDE that supports this WinSioux kind of running environment where it allows me to print all the output and doesn't clear the display buffer after a few lines. I'd rather not shell out the $$$$ for Codewarrior 8 when this is my last high level programming course ever.

Did you try to use Google

I am not aware of the program, and never used CodeWarrior (did not exist in my time:eek:)

A quick scan through some of the Google references, look like they you use the CodeWarrior IDE, the output to stdout is captured and displayed in a window.
The WinSioux looks like it should allow you to capture this output. (acts like a Notepad).

An alternative that I used for programming eons ago, was when I did an I/O to stdin/stdout, I also sent the same string to a file.
I would then turn in the file.

Well I know what it is, but I don't have the option of installing additional stationaries off the codewarrior 7 CD. I need to know where I can get the files to get this installed, and I haven't found them. All the links on the first few pages of google are just .edu's that are giving assignments and not actually getting the files I need.

Try contacting the poeple who produce CodeWarrior.

Talk to the instructor for guidance.

If all the instructor wants is an output, try the suggestion that I gave about dumping I/O to a file.
