I will go with that one,
but simplify it a bit
file q1.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello\n");
}
raspberrypi: ~ # gcc -o q1 q1.c
raspberrypi: ~ # l q1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8068 Oct 18 09:33 q1*
raspberrypi: ~ # ./q1
Hello
So an about 8 kilobytes size executable ....
Better use bash
echo "Hello"
raspberrypi: ~ # echo "Hello"
Hello

That does something slightly different.

That’s the same as the original printf.

OK, just for fun, I downloaded
hello-2.12.tar.gz 2022-01-31 13:58 1.0M
Imakefile etc etc
xmkmf
make
mkdir hello
mv hello-2.12.tar.gz hello/
cd hello
tar -zxvf hello-2.12.tar.gz
l
cd */
l
./configure
l
make
l
./hello
cd src
l
joe hello.c
l
cd ..
l
./hello
'l' in zsh that I use as shell stands for 'ls -rtl'
saves typing and always show recent

The parent article was posted to comp.os.linux.misc and
comp.os.linux.advocacy.
Why did you add a cross-post to comp.lang.c?
Please don't do that (unless you actually want to discuss the
contents of hello.c for some reason).

Well, the math of particle accelerators is well beyond my hard-wiring. I'm best as a 'generalist', bringing a bunch of dis-related threads together, seeing how disparate 'A' 'B' and 'C' relate. Had a good 40+ year career with that. Sometimes knowing a little about a LOT of things pays off as well as knowing a LOT about ONE thing. Somebody has to tie it all together. > But then ..expanded that ZX80 with more memory, several I/O cards > even added an IBM PC keyboard and ran the C80 C compiler on it > I wanted to run software from the CPM user group but no CPM for that ZX80. > So wrote my own CP/M clone and it worked: > https://panteltje.nl/panteltje/z80/index.html > Here what I added to that Sinclair Z80: > https://panteltje.nl/panteltje/z80/system14/diagrams/index.html > > By that time I was working in a company designing a.o.

Only designed ONE kinda simple PCI card. Sounds like you went further. I fell in love with "embedded" - low-powered chips and minimal hardware. Seemed just 'art' to do useful things with that. Lots of 'C' and ASM shit.

I started travelling the world, doing work in electronics wherever I could find, sometimes via agencies. I have this thing called 'curiosity' that drives me. Worked for army, navy, power stations, space, broadcasting, had a TV and radio repair shop, car electronics, art, medical in a big university hospital here, in an airport, in satellite communication, in Europe, in the US, and in the UK. Been almost everywhere from many European countries to down-under. Languages, Dutch, English, German, French, little bit Italian (pizza I know what it is just had one ;-0), bit of Spanish.. Will be eighty years old in a few month, still learning. >> But then ..expanded that ZX80 with more memory, several I/O cards >> even added an IBM PC keyboard and ran the C80 C compiler on it >> I wanted to run software from the CPM user group but no CPM for that ZX80. >> So wrote my own CP/M clone and it worked: >> https://panteltje.nl/panteltje/z80/index.html >> Here what I added to that Sinclair Z80: >> https://panteltje.nl/panteltje/z80/system14/diagrams/index.html >> >> By that time I was working in a company designing a.o.

Yes, keep it simple. Simple things sometimes just keep working for ages: https://panteltje.nl/pub/8052AH_BASIC_computer/8052AH_BASIC_computer_inside_img_1727.jpg https://panteltje.nl/pub/8052AH_BASIC_computer/8052AH_BASIC_computer_inside2_img_1757.jpg https://panteltje.nl/pub/8052AH_BASIC_computer/8052AH_BASIC_computer_wiring_img_1756.jpg 1985 or so? Had it powered on last year, worked OK after giving it some time to re-charge the battery that keeps the BASIC program in static RAM. Was used to drive all sort of stuff around the house via simple i2c.

I bought the ZX81 kit to see what you got for $80 US, but that was about 15 years after my first FORTRAN IV program. I wasn't interested in programming until the microcontrollers appeared so the early part of my career was hardware control circuits. Logic is logic.

Yes, started with hardware as a kid, crystal radio, then tube radios then when the first transistors came, build a small 1 transistor FM transmitter in highschool. And a tube amp for the school band, guitarist liked it. Started playing with CRTs, build an all transistor tube TV.. Then later in my first job designed and build a portable vidicon TV camera all transistors. Looked for a more fun and safer job (almost got killed on a Navy flightdeck). That camera and what I knew about TV landed me a job at the national TV network here. Experimenting at home continued (ever since ;-) . As for TV, color TV, nanosecond precision time base compensation, loads of transistor stuff, racks full, just one of the hundreds of things: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/4019119/Ampex-Colortec-1011.html circuit diagrams are in there too around page 120 Had to keep it all running and fix it if it did not run. And all the tube based stuff And run the place at times. I do remember Fortran, wrote some lines of that code, but am C or asm 'oriented'. There is more ... Still writing code and designing electronics.
