      Programming using eXceed

      1. In the Unix xterm, start an editor, for example nedit

      2. The editor window will appear on the screen.

      3. You can now type in the program in the editor window

      4. Save the program ensuring that the filename ends ".cpp" (or .C or .cxx). Using nedit, the Save option can be selected from the File pull-down menu.

      5. Return to the Unix window and compile the program. In this example, I saved the program as the file hello.cpp, so to compile it

        g++ -o hello hello.cpp

      6. This will have produced an executable called hello which can be run by typing

        hello

      7. You can now type in another program and repeat the above steps
