Newbie Compilation Question


     Yet again I must apologize for the newbie nature of this question, but 
     perusing the archives has revealed no answer.
     
     I am compiling a very simple program for reading keystrokes.  
     Specifically, I wish to use GetKeyState().  I have included windows.h 
     in my program file, and I have linked with both user32 and glaux (the 
     latter of which I believe may be superfluous.).  The reason I have not 
     used the -mwindows option is that I am not trying to write a GUI-based 
     program, just to get access to GetKeyState.  In any case, I keep 
     getting the following two error messages:
     
     C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cc0010001.o(.text+0x3a):keystate.c: undefined 
     reference to GetKeyState@4
     C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cc0010001.0(.text+0x6d):keystate.c: undefined 
     reference to GetKeyState@4
     
     And, naturally, the link fails.  I have checked the libraries using nm 
     and have found that user32 and glaux appear to be where GetKeyState@4 
     is defined.  Apparently, I'm wrong.
     
     Any suggestions?
