Re: Idiotic question


Martin,

It took a bit of detective work to figure out what your problem is.  Let
me guess, you're getting an 'Undefined reference to WinMain at 16', aren't
you?  If you are, did you look at the FAQ:
<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC95>?

If I did guess correctly, please read the following in addition to the FAQ:
<http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html>.
