I was able to get GCC to work on my system (strangely it would
not work in MT C-Shell, but it works fine from the desktop).
But anyway, what I was wondering, I was compiling some files
that used fcvt (floating point to string), getch (wait for
a character), and getchar (get a char), but when went to link
the files these functions were undefined.  I am pretty sure that
GCC on the SUNS has fcvt and getchar (I am not sure about getch),
but does the ST version too?  If so, how do I link them in?

Another thing...

When I am linking, does GCC look through all the files in my
lib path or does it only look in a default file?  For instance,
if I want to compile a GEM program will I have to specify
'-lgemlib' ?
