Only /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow need to be modified to create a new user, though a new home directory with skeleton configuration files is also created if requested.

Compilers required in opensuselinux for c plus plus programming?

Most, if not all, Linux distributions have the compiler you would need to compile c and c++ programs, gcc, or the gnu c compiler chain. If you type "gcc --help" into the terminal, it will give you a short list of command line arguments that are needed, as well as briefly explain the various command line arguments. Man (manual) pages can be read by typing "man gcc" at a terminal prompt. Man pages are very thorough (read: very long) explanations of every possible use for a program or command. If you do not have gcc installed (I don't know how you wouldn't), you should be able to use YAST to install it. Search for "gcc" and install the most recent package. You may need to install the header files, and possibly the kernel sources as well for some programming.
