You can do it on the command line -- just try it. make(1) (and its typical input, a set of makefiles) is just a clever wrapper for shell commands. It's not "required" to do anything at all, though life soon becomes miserable without it or something similar. > BTW, am I correct in understanding that originally, gcc stood for "GNU > C compiler", while now, gcc is just a language-neutral front-end that > can compile different source files (C, C++, Fortran, etc.) and is > smart enough to guess what type of source files it is handed and call > the right compiler accordingly? gcc == command line tool for preprocessing/compiling/linking C programs. GCC == GNU Compiler Collection, a suite of tools for compiling tons of different languages. See http://gcc.gnu.org. Eric -- Eric A.
