title: How to Compile C++ Code Using Vim on Windows?
body: <p>First, I install <strong>Vim</strong> <em>(Text Editor)</em> in <em>Typical</em> type, on this Windows 7 laptop. And this user that I'm using is an administrator on this computer but couldn't open file in <em>“Program Files”</em> location for writing with Vim. So I change my <code>:cd</code> current directory to my <code>$HOME</code>.</p>
  
  <p><em>Note:</em> I already have installed Visual Studio Express for Windows Desktop. I just want learn how to use this.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Can I compile C++ code using <strong>Vim</strong> in <em>Typical</em> type alone on Windows?</li>
  <li>If it's possible, then what's the process for compiling C++ code?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I have <em>hello.cpp</em> file but I can't compile it. I already use <code>:comp gcc</code> and <code>:make</code> and the output is: <em>'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command,</em></p>
  
  <p>But when I use <code>:comp msvc</code> and <code>:make</code>, the output is: <em>'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command,</em></p>
  
  <p>Now, what should I do? If it's not possible using Vim alone, how can I compile using Vim with the compiler on my VS Express for Desktop?</p>
