you forgot the INT before main() ...
and if you are running djgpp from a text editor under windows,
you have to know, that djgpp is a dos compiler and doesn't
accept directory- or file-names larger than 8 letters
it will output the error message that you wrote:
{
gcc.exe: p1.c: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
gcc.exe: No input files
}

/* thus is my 1st c program */
 #include <stdio.h>

 int main()
 {
   printf ("hello world\n");
   return 0;
 }
