If you use notepad, when saving, enclose the file name in quotes so
that notepad doesn't automatically append the .txt suffix.

What? right click? where? why?

You don't have to right click anywhere, just open a DOS box, go to the
dir where you have hello.cpp and type

gcc -Wall -c hello.cpp

If everything is right (i.e.: gcc is in your path, the DJGPP
environment variable has been set up correctly, etc.) you should now
have an object file named hello.o
