You can do “vi hello.c” to edit it?
Or “cat hello.c” to display it.
If you want to run it: “./hello”
(./ is just a short cut for the full path to
your hello program. It’s the same as saying
“/home/ted/hello” if your program was in /home/ted"
The reason for having to supply a full path?
“.” is not in the default path, due to good
reasons recently explained in a thread in
one of these newsgroups…)

Thanks for the info on what ./ (dot-slash in qnx, not slash-dot … 
means. No wonder I couldnt run the hello exe file when I typed hello (or
a.out). I had thought that when I’m in the same dir as the file is, I
need not type the full path.

You can change this default behavior.
Just append the follwing line to your .profile in your home directory :
PATH=$PATH:.
Contrary to MS-DOS/Win95/NT, on Un*x systems the current directory must be
explicitely added to the PATH variable.
