Hello there, i am currently trying to pick up coding from the one provided at psp-programming.com but i got stuck here...

And that's it for the program! Now we just have to tell the compiler how we want this project compiled by creating a Makefile. So create a new file called "Makefile" with no extention (ie, no .txt). Once you've done this, open it up in your text editor.

but i have absolutely no idea on how to make a file with no exensions. Any1 care to enlighten me?

say you had a file named blah.txt, take away he .txt on it and I think thats all you have to do!

rename it from blah.txt to blah with right clicking on it.

From notepad select save as then press all files and save it as "Makefile."
