Show us the complete program. Typing code in a terminal won't do a bit of good (in case you were doing that). Use a text editor or IDE to enter in your program, gcc to compile and run the linker, and then you can execute the program upon successful compilation. I seriously doubt the window manager or OS has anything to do with why you are getting a syntax error. Also, the printf() statement above is...odd looking. Almost like it was entered into some sort of word processor instead of a text editor. Funky characters could be what's wrong but without seeing the complete program, that's hard to tell for certain. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* MyTaskFocus 1.1 Get on task.
