If you just type the command, you get something like: [helmet@BuffyRox helmet]$ gtk-config --cflags --libs -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm This would be pretty useless by itself, but it relies on backquotes to take the output of a command and put it in a command line. So, these two commands end up being the same: gcc -o dest source.c `gtk-config --cflags --libs` gcc -o dest source.c -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
