Thanks for your (and everyone else) answer.  I was reading the FAQ and 8.4
discussed that an extention of .cpp would identify the source as a C++ file
so that it could be compiled properly.  I (wrongly) assumed that the idea
of knowing it was a C++ file would carry all the way down to an executable.
Is there a way to make it so that if the source is recognized as C++, that
it automatically links in the lgpp library without having to pass it in on
the command line (since all of my .cpp files will have cin and/or cout)?
