Hello, Try to type './first' instead of 'first' When we want execute a command in the same directory we are, we should type the prefix './' by security reasons. Guillermo. On Tuesday 16 December 2003 21:32, KPP52@aol.com wrote:
I have Personal 9.0 I wrote the basic C program first.c then I did: gcc -o first first.c then I tried to run it by typing: first and it gives me a message: bash first no such command. so I tried: gcc first.c there was an a.out file in the directory then I typed: a.out and it gives me the same error message. Is there something I'm missing with the C compiler here? I'm new to SuSE and new to linux in general. I have done some C programming in Unix and this is confusing me tremendously. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
