Yes. 'make' too. I will probably show them all this in the first and second recitations, where there isn't much C to show them (at first they will probably see more C in the lectures, than in the recitations) - so it is a good chance to show them how to work with the environment. I will also give them some reception hours on basic shell manuvering, e.g. ls, cat, cd find etc. > I have a feeling most of them will actually do the "coding" in more > comfortable environments.
