cc/gcc programming - where are the includes?

[Christoph Kukulies]

Thanks. I have Xcode installed and I’m developing an App presently. I need to run a small server on my mac as well and I thought the best would be to run it in a terminal and compile it with a C-compiler of choice. Need not to be gcc. Just the default one. And thanks Ruben for the tip using the CPATH variable.
