Can you put the following into a file?
---------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
int
main( )
{
puts( "Hello World" ) ;
return 0 ;
}
-----------------------------------------
Call the file 'hello.c' or something. Then run :
$ gcc hello.c -o hello
$ ./hello
You should see "Hello World" printed on the screen. If you get any
error mesages, paste them to the list and attach a copy of the C file
(just to make sure there wasn't a typo).
HTH,
