Re: gcc


Note that, by default, Unix does *not* look for executables
in your current directory, so, as the previous poster pointed
out:

./a.out

tells it to run a.out, and by golly, its right here in the
current directory.

p.s. When I first started doing this stuff, I hurt my finger
pointing at the screen and yelling - "It's right there you
idiot!", boy do I feel silly about that now.
