Actually, gcc processes a series of "things", where each thing could be a file, a library definition, etc. So it recognizes "-lm" as a library designation regardless of where it exists. It does NOT have to be at the end specifically - you can have more file names after it. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
