[plug] gcc :Which files?

[J & J Powell]

Well.... I've got my helloworld program written in text editor 'Kate' in a
file called helloWorld.c

It is in a directory called helloworld

I am changing into the helloworld directory and then using ggc-o helloworld
helloworld.c

In response I get
gcc:no input files

So I thought that I need to install some missing files. Please note that I
know basically nothing about Linux, have only just installed it straight
from the box.......

Thanks Janice
