simple c 's printf problem in mandrake8.0

[eric]

Dear Stephano:

  I tried to put what you suggest fflush(stdout), either before or after
printf("hello World") , it still not print in bash shell.

  or I type fflush(stdout) in my bash command line, it response command
not found.

  Would you mind to explain a little bit more,

on redhat 7.1 , it works(although whether it is bash or any other
shell), so far as I know only mandrake8 is not work.
