That makes no sense. g++ -o file will put the executable in that file in the current directory. If it's going elsewhere, then you're telling it to put it elsewhere. 1) Why do you keep reporting Windows paths when talking about Cygwin? You're running these commands inside a Cygwin bash window, right? 2) what does the command 'pwd' tell you? -- Mark J.
