New user objecting to using stolen software

[Alf C Stockton <alf stockton co za>]

I have been given a task of developing a C program for Windows despite being a
Linux/command line person.
I believe that gtk supports Windows but now where do I start?
What should I download and install?
My "using stolen software" in the Subject refers to the fact that I don't,
unless I have to, want to use Visual Studio or .Net as I do not intend paying
for same and would prefer to do the development on my Linux box and port to
Windows when complete.
