    Did you install a C compiler?

    Did you install a standard C library?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    but now i have this error
    Code:
    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXaw
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make: *** [xspim] Error 1
    ive already installed a C compiler, flex and bison...

    is there anything i need to install? (if there is one, then how do i install it?)

    any comment is highly appreciated

    Xaw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Either
    - you need to install it,
    - you need to get the name correct (do you have libXaw.a)?
    - you need to specify the directory (using -L) where libXaw.a can be found.

    Remember, case is important. Does it really have a capital letter?
