[nhc-users] Newbie question

[Monique Louise]

Hi all,

  I'm a newbie to nhc and I'm trying to compile a simple "hello world" program:

module Main where

main = putStr "hello world"

with nhc98 hello.hs or nhc98 hello.hs -o hello.exe

  but the following messages appera:

I'm running version 1.16 at Windows XP with Cygwin.

Does anyone have any idea about what is happening?

Thanks in advance,
