Are you asking how to write a program? You open an editor, and start typing. Compile it when you're done.

RHEL5 already comes with C compilers and libraries, and there are many more you can download with your subscription to RedHat Enterprise. However, if you're not paying for it, load CentOS instead.

You don't need to start any service. For writing use nano or gedit (which should have syntax highlighting for C), and for compiling, obviously gcc - I think these 2 should ship with RHEL, they definitely come with Fedora.

Code:

# yum groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"

Open an editor.
Write your program.

Code:

$ gcc -o -l<dependency name> <executable name> <source1.c> <source2.c> ...
$ ./<executable name>

Incidentally, vim also has syntax highlighting for most prog langs.
There's a C section here also: http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz
