RE: compiling


I'm guessing you're more of a Windows user, so humour me when I ask:
Is the 'executable bit' set on band.exe ?

Try 'ls -l band.exe'.  You may see something like:

	-rw-rw-rw-   1 others   others   6243 Oct 28 13:51 band.exe

Now try 'chmod a+x band.exe' and then repeat the ls command, hopefully
you'll get something more like:

	-rwxrwxrwx   1 others   others   6243 Oct 28 13:51 band.exe

The x characters mean that the file is now executable by you, your group and
everyone else.  Or something like that:  my Unix is woefully rusty.

Further caveat: my hazy recollection is that compilers on Linux (and other
Unixes) set the x bit by default on the executable files they create.  So
I'm doubting my own suggestion.
