Okay, I tried this: gcc -Wall -c smain.c ===> no errors gcc -Wall -c gaaout.c ===> a few errors having to do with a return (no args) in a function that isn't supposed to return void. After I fixed 'em, gcc -Wall -c gaaout.c ===> no errors gcc -o smain smain.o gaaout.o ===> no errors execute `smain' ==> core dump. sigh. Thanks, Chuck -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
