C compiler recommendations

I am a high school teacher, not a programmer, but I was delighted to find that, using Euphoria, I could create a special purpose editor for a 100MB binary tree data file with which I deal. The editor is less than 500 lines long. The most complicated thing it does is finding powers of 2. The "includes" are: file.e, get.e, getch.e, graphics.e, machine.e, dll.e. I want to be able to distribute the editing program (and data file) to several people as a stand-alone executable program. I think I understand that this means translating to C and compiling. I do not need a very fancy compiler, but I do want one that is likely to need minimal doctoring of the translated code (I am not a C programmer). Given the constraints, what is the best bang for the buck? Allen
