I've made a program using gcc as a compiler.
In my loops I've been using a uint type as the type of my loop variable.
But now it seems that some systems doesn't support this type.
Can I make a preprocessor conditional that does a
#define uint to unsigned int
if typename uint doesn't exist
thanks in advance

Why? Use the standard unsigned int rather than a type that doesn't exist in most compilers. You've now seen the reason we try to always recommend not using compiler-specific enhancements.
