OK - here's an easy one...I've finally gotten GCC successfully downloaded
and detared - the advice of dumping it to MacPartition and changing the
creator/type to 'A/UX' and 'BIN ' worked!  Thanks to all the people who helped
with that.

Now, I'm trying to get various programs of mine compiled.  Just to try gcc
out, I started with the infamous 'hello world' program - typing
'gcc hello.c' faithfully produced the a.out executable that would print
hello world upon execution.  However, I tried compiling by first doing
'gcc -c hello.c' and then 'gcc -o hello hello.o'.  This compilation worked,
but now when the executable is run, nothing gets displayed!  The same seemed
to happen with A/UX's own cc compiler.

What am I missing?

Thanks very much,
