I don't want to download Visual Studio 2010.
-
How can I start studying (not
developing real applications) C# 4.0
and .NET 4.0 with just a text
editor? -
Can I just download C# 4.0 compiler
and .NET 4.0 framework and get
started? How?
I have got Visual Studio 2008 but I learn from SO questions that it can't do the job.

The C# compiler is part of the .NET Framework.
You can find it under C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\your_version_number\csc.exe
So, just open a text editor, write your source code, and compile it with the command line compiler.
