Background

MinGW is not really a well suited environment for C programming, but if your university course requires you to use it, then by all means ensure that you use it efficiently without letting it get in your way. Usually, MinGW comes with a (rather lousy) Windows port of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). Some IDEs use GCC via MinGW to invoke the GNU C compiler to compile C code. Here are some tips to ensure that your code is portable across different versions of Windows for your university C programming assignment:

Tip 1: Check the encoding

Unsurprisingly, Microsoft had neglected their command line. For years, the default encoding for the command prompt was Code Page 437. This meant that only a limited character set could be displayed on it. It was not until Windows 10 that the default encoding changed to UTF-8. This presents some portability problems. From experience I can tell you that your lecturer will expect you to use the default settings on a specific version of Windows. To check th
