Go to http://wxdsgn.sourceforge.net/ and download the most recent release.
The first option is more likely to be used by most students who are not yet familiar with Unix.
Launch the installer. The destination file may not have any spaces in the name. I would suggest that you use the default C:\Dev-Cpp.
The path to the project may not have any spaces, either. Consequently, I would suggest, for example, C:\Dev-Cpp\ece250\p1a and C:\Dev-Cpp\ece250\p1b. This breaks Project 1 into two parts: one for Single_list and one for Cyclic_list. Copy all the files for Single_list into p1a and all the files for Cyclic_list, into p1b.

Next, launch Dev-C++, select File→New→Project... . In the New project dialog, select an Empty Project, name the project p1a, and make sure that C++ Project is selected. Save the project in C:\Dev-cpp\ece250\p1a.
You will now see a screen with a single project labeled p1a in the left panel. Right click on that node and select Add to project. This brings up an Open File dialog and select the following files from the p1a directory.
Do not include Single_list_double_driver.cpp, as any project can contain at most one int main(); function. Be sure to include Tester.h.
You may now compile by selecting Execute→Clean followed by Execute→Compile. This creates an executable named p1a.exe. See the following instructions.

Once you get the project working correctly (i.e., the output matches the file sli.out, remove Single_list_int_driver.cpp from the project and add Single_list_double_driver.cpp, recompile, and test this with sld.
If you select Execute→Compile & Run, you will have a Command Prompt window open with the text
Staring Test Run 1 %
At this point, you can test your class interactively.
