setting up gpc

Fri, 11 Apr 1997 15:40:03 -0700

I've recently downloaded gpc (dos-djgpp) and tried running it.  I used
the sample hello world program included.  I first tried doing this:

gpc.exe hello.pas

But it said it oculdn't open ld.exe or something
"c:/djgpp/bin\ld.exe: cannot open -lgpc: No such file or directory
(ENOENT)"
Note the slashes ^

I'm assuming this is the executable you use, but I tried gpc1.exe:

gpc1.exe hello.pas

This worked fine, and the output was hello.s, an assembly file.

that's the current situation, I have a djgpp dir and a gpc dir on my
computer, both with the included binaries and documentations.

So what's wrong, am I missing a parameter running gpc.exe, or do I need
an assembler after gpc1.exe?
