Not a problem!!  First, do have a look at the file README.1ST...Some
of the stuff in there will getcha goin'!!  (I've done the *same*
thing, too!!).

Give this a try:

	gcc -c -Wall a.cc
	gxx -o a.exe a.o

I *think* you need to rename .cpp to .cc (although, again, look though
the readme file *and* the djgppfaq for further info...)

If you downloaded the stand-alone info programme, try:

	info gcc invoking

for more information.


It's a bit tough at first, but stick with it.  Give a cursory look to
*all* the documentation and keep asking questions.  There *are*
friendly souls out there who will help...
