A GNU development environment
Hi
I started a new semester at school and in my Assembly class, we will be developing in Linux. Not having any other choice, I'm using Knoppix 3.9 LiveCD on my laptop since I can't install Linux on it. However, I can't find the tools we will be using in class. I know that they are included on the cd, but I don't know how to reach them.
We are using the GNU tools, mainly:
make
gcc and g++
as
ld
etc
in class, the teacher only calls them in the shell by using the name of the tool, so I guess they have to be set up to work in any folder...
Is it possible to set up Knoppix to do the same? If so, is it easily done so I can redo it every time I boot into Knoppix?

Nothing to be set up, just type the commands in on konsole. The executables all live in directories that are in your PATH
(<code> echo $PATH</code>). Also try <code> type gcc</code> to find out where exactly "gcc" is located.
Good luck with your course!

ok so since the executables are all in the PATH variable, it should be possible to call them from any folder by simply typing <code>gcc</code> for example, right?

its works fine now...
i dont know what was wrong then, because i just do the same thing and it works....
