This it the C++ echo, so I will assume you want to learn C++.  Yes, you will 
need to get a compiler.  I know of only one (half-decent) C++ compiler, which 
is DJGPP available at http://www.delorie.com/ or on some of the BBSes around 
here, anyways.  
Right now I'm using Turbo C++ V3.0 (Borland's) which is full of bugs, but 
it's all I've got.  Since it *was* in the garbage, what can I say?
I do have a text tutorial here (you'll have to go through a C one first, 
though, which I also have) but it's a bit outdated ('86/87 for the C one, '90 
or so for the C++).  I am working on my own right now..
