"Hello World" wont run (yes, im new to this ^_^)

[Mr.Clean]

when i try to this hello word code:

[code language="bennu"]import "mod_say"

Process Main()
Begin
   say("Hello World");
End[/code]

i get the following message:

Too many files specified

> Terminated with exit code 0.

instead of generating the "other" file for the interpreter to read (i think its called the Bytecode)

How do you compile?

[Mr.Clean]

ctrl + 1 with Crimson Editor

[josebita]

Please make sure the compiler options are set correctly. If that doesn't help, try to compile your code by hand first (bgdc main.prg from the windows console).

[handsource-dyko]

I recommend to compile it manually, and to create a batch or shell script file that does it for you.
It always works for me. I always create two different batch files, one that compiles and runs, and
the other to created a stubbed exe file.

C:\Documents and Settings\user>C:\Bennu\Bin\bgdc.exe test.prg

[Mr.Clean]

C:\Documents and Settings\user>C:\Bennu\Bin\bgdc.exe test.prg

did that after i copy/pasted test.prg into the bgdc.exe directory and got this:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\test.prg:0: error: test.prg: file not found (EO
F)

could my pc be corrupted?

[EugeneP]

Your PC is OK, 99.9% chance.
You should add to PATH folders containing mod_say.dll or copy all Bennu's dlls to folder containing bgdc.exe

[josebita]

Also, run that command in the directory where test.prg is located (or better, try to configure crinsom editor options better :)).

[Mr.Clean]

in system variables, does PATH have to be small?

[EugeneP]

in system variables, does PATH have to be small?

Windows environment variables values can be very long, AFAIK. No problems expected here.

[Windgate]

You can't compile that? :o

Dude, just install Bennupack, use its Notepad++ as editor and press F6 to build and run.

No environment vars, no relative paths... Just work.

[handsource-dyko]

I recommend to copy your bennu installation to your project directory.
This way you don't have to worry about the path.

What I always do, is I create a folder my project, and put a copy of bennu's excutable
files and dll's in it. Also, I put a shortcut to cmd.exe in this folder, and change it's
begin in folder properties to the path of the project folder. No, you can type bdgc myprog.prg
and then bgdi myprog.dcb without having to type the entire path. (Wich is annoying especially on
case sensitive systems like linux, where I use a similair fashion, therefore I recommend to only use
lowercase filenames, so you don't have get annoyed by the caps-lock key).

the problem may be in the crimson editor configuration, the bolded word spare (or leave),
