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

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?

Thanks
