help me pllzzzz...first time

["magbast" <royo2 at hotmail dot com>]

i'm using cygnus/gcc ...neither of their manuals can tell me why a simpe
printf program won't exe...i keep getting a dll error...so i tried to make a
dll and got more confused...i have the c and c++ books...but they don't help
with the compiler...can anyone tell me how i should go about making the
executable work...here's the program...very simple..yet after compiled, it
won't work

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    printf("This is a short program");

    return 0;
}

ok..i compile it...the .exe is there...but i try to run it...and it says i'm
missin drivers or dll....how to fix this...do i build a dll ?
