Yes, GPS is an IDE, not a compiler. You need to install whatever
compiler you wish to use separately.

Yes, look at the naming page on the project properties editor. Please
read the documentation first before asking questions, these are all
answered there !

> 3. Finaly: Can I use more than one extention for a file type? i.e.

Same as above
