I have very little experience with C and compiling stuff, but I attempted to
compile Povray with Dev-C++.

I was flooded in errors and at the bottom of the list it said:

"Something must be very wrong with your code!" or something similar.
I would like to be able to compile it with Dev-C++. If someone succeeded in 
doing this, please send me the .dev file and/or instructions via mail.
