Perhaps the problem is that inform is not in your path. Do a 'echo $PATH' to see if the directory inform resides in is being checked before trying to run the program. If you know inform is not in your path, from the current directory do a ./inform and it will run as an executable which it assumes to be in the current directory. Hope this helps -----Original Message----- From: Alex Kwan [mailto:alexkwan@pacific.net.hk] Sent: Sunday, May 14, 2000 8:00 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: A basic question about C programming Hi! I am learning C programming with FreeBSD, I write a simple C program (filename: inform.c) as follow: #include <stdio.h> main() { printf("A .c is used to end a C program filename.\n"); } I compile it with "cc -o inform inform.c", when the compilation is finished, I have got the file "inform", but it can't execute and got the error "inform: Command not found", What is the problem of me?
