* Dead-simple solution which won't always do:

	gxx *.o -o test.exe

* Slightly better solution: use response files:

	gxx @ofiles.lst -o test.exe

  (where ofiles.lst is what its name suggests)

* Medium solution: use DJGPP's port of bash

* Best solutions: use a Makefile or an IDE (such as RHIDE)
