Hi,
When I try to compile my program with:
fpc myfile.p
This produces no errors and myfile.o appears in my home directory. However, there is no executable file (a.out). Am I doing something wrong?

Unless myfile is a unit, there should also be a file simply called "myfile" (without extension) after compilation, which is the executable.

a.out is an ancient unix fileformat, that is still abused as default name in gcc. (even though gcc generates ELF since at least 1996)
What other files are generated
- If it is a main program, "myfile" should have been created in addition. Run it.
- if it is a unit (library) "myfile.ppu" should have been generated.
