$gcc -c foo.c                               <-produces foo.o

$gcc foo.o -lbar.a                        <- links foo.o with bar.a to
produce a.exe

$gcc -ofoobar.exe foo.o -lbar.a     <- links foo.o with bar.a to
produce foobar.exe

You can use Gnu make to control this process completely. Read the gcc
manual
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-2.95.3/gcc_2.html#SEC4    <-- link
to section with compile/link options
and the Gnu make one.
http://www.gnu.org/manual/make/index.html

These are also on the DJGPP site. If you download these and you unzip
them into your djgpp folder they will be in ($DJDIR)\gnu
