Here's how I do it: g++ -o executable_name source_code.cpp
That should compile it. I personally have that all set up into a script so it
takes less time to type. Put
#!/bin/bash
g++ -o $1 $1.cpp; ./$1
into a text file, like "compile", chmod it (chmod u+x compile), and move it
in your path, like /usr/local/bin. Then to compile a program you wrote, just
type "compile program_name" and it'll compile and run it automatically. And as
far as I know, all compilers work the same way.
