: Typing ``a'' will run the program, since for some reason that I don't know, 
: when you don't specify an output file it writes a file called ``a.exe''. Oh, 

   It is standard that the default file name for gcc when an output
name is not specified is to be 'a.out'. Since DOS requires a '.exe'
(or '.com', etc) extension, this is a.exe with DJGPP.
