I have just started using CodelLite
It tells me that the program "contains some invalid characters"
I am trying to start a program and i call it C:\Program Files\COMPUTER\Cs2\lab6
and the program informs me that this is an invalid path?
I dont understand what are the invalid characters?
Thanks

Hi,
That path has a space in it. The mingw compiler can't cope with spaces.
Try moving things to a different folder; one without a space in its filepath.
Regards,
David

Just an aside you might be able to get away with having spaces in the path if you enclose the path with double quotes ""
The arm cross compiler I use installs as
C:/Program Files (x86)/GNU Tools ARM Embedded/4.7 2013q1/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe
With "" quotes around it, it works
"C:/Program Files (x86)/GNU Tools ARM Embedded/4.7 2013q1/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe"
