Which version is your Kickpascal? Well, if it's Kickpascal 2.0x, you have to
create an EXECUTE-file (with the "File"-Pull-down-menu or the "E"-Key in the
keyboard menu). An OBJECT-file is a file for external linking (e. g. with
the BLink-public-domain-linker). So you could enter

BLink myprog.o paslib.o to myprog

in the CLI ("paslib.o" is the Kickpascal runtime library and is included 
somewhere on one of the disks, BLink can be found on many PD disks) to
create an executable file manually, but of course it is easyer to do that
directly from the KP system.

Ciao,

Jens.
