If gxx gives a "file not found" error, it means that the filename you have specified can not be found. Is the file in the right directory (the current directory if you don't specify a path). Alternatively, if you are getting the "Bad command or file name" error, it means that the command interpreter cannot find gxx - this usually means that DJGPP isn't installed correctly.
