Hi all,
my problem is that when I compile with terminal using "gcc filename" I think that the standard used by the terminal is c89, because for example if I write a loop whith a variable declared inside, the terminal give me an error writing "a.c:4: error: ‘for’ loop initial declaration used outside C99 mode", so the question is how can I set the terminal to make he compile me using standard c99?
Thanks in advance.

The version of GCC shipped with Xcode is 4.2.1 (well, my version of Xcode, which is 4.2). To compile the code as C99, you should add '--std=c99' (per the manual page for GCC). Note that the c99 support is not complete in 4.2.1: http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.2/c99status.html
I suspect you'll be happier with the answer you'll get if you ask here
thank you I'll post there
You're welcome; but, when I posted my message, I had not seen J D McIninch's reply, so my message is not in any way a comment on his post, which I believe to be the right answer. I just thought you were more likely to solve this type of question in the developer forum. It turns out I was wrong, and J D McIninchgave you the solution very quickly.
you're right, I haven't seen an answer before yours too, I received for email your answer and I write here, so sorry J D McIninch to have ignored you.
Btw thanks a lot, I've solved my doubt.
