The problrm that seems to be happening is that I : compile fine and the a.out file is made but when I type a.out I get the : message: : a.out: not found. Then try ./a.out ! The leading "./" sequence means "execute what is HERE". You probably dont have the "." in your PATH. Without starting a thread about "should the dot be included in user's path?", I just wanna say that it's quite easy to get used to strike ./ before the name of your binary. Two key strokes ain't the end of the world ! : Andre. : chan6169<wkchang@nyct.net> Kernel panic: out of silicon ! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- P.
