Lab 1

When you finish this lab you should:

1. Log into the unix environment.
2. Start the Graphical User Interface.
3. Use an editor to create a program.
4. Use a compiler to produce an executable.
5. Email source code to me.

• Log into one of the machines in the lab running linux
• copy your xstartup script
  • You need to copy a file from my directory to yours,
  • to do this you use the unix copy command.
  • the format is cp sourcefile destinationfile
  • In this case you need to type

    	cp ~dbennett/.xinitrc .
    	

• type startx
• Start an editor, this is the button at the bottom of the task bar that looks like a notpad.
• 
• Enter the code from the program on page 70 (change the names and such)
• Save your program as lab1.C
• Start a terminal emulator (the computer with a shell on it) to run the compiler in.
• Compile the code, fix errors, compile

          
   g++ -o lab1 lab1.C
     

• Add comments describing this as lab 1, and other documentation.
• Email the final .C file to dbennett@edinboro.edu, call it lab1
