Question in C Programming about installing the program after created it

Question

If I for example created a program in C language and I want to make as an application to be used. How can I do that? this question is going around my mind for very long time.

Well it's possible to write a CGI script using C which can then be used in an HTML website. There's a tutorial here but there are a number of issues as you'll gather when reading it: http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/forms/cgic.html As far as PHP is concerned you can't (to the best of my knowledge) call a C program directly from it but you can write a PHP extension using C. I found a tutorial here: http://www.tuxradar.com/practicalphp/20/0/0

If you're just building simple C applications which don't use anything other than the standard libraries then it should just be a matter of copying the .exe file to a different location or to a different machine which uses the same operating system. However if the program depends on other files those will need to be installed where the program can find them - the folder which contains the .exe file itself is usually a good place.
