C IDE / Compiler

Hi All,
I am a university student doing a course which requires the use of C. I do most of the work from home so I have installed cygwin and gvim on XP as the recommended programming environments. I havnt yet been able to find a C compiler for cygwin but would prefer to use an IDE.
Can anyone direct me to a C IDE I can use? or if not can someone direct me to the C compiler for cygwin and give instructions on how to get it working? Its pretty urgent that I get this programming done so any help would be more than brilliant.

Does that compile for C or just C++? Is it an IDE?

Cygwin is interesting in that every time you want to install something, you go through the Setup.exe process. It'll look like you're re-installing, but it just does that to check for updates. Once you select your repository and everything, GCC and G++ should be in the Development menus.
