Re: Compiling

Found out more... apparently you must make it executable in order to get a compiled product. I deleted it and tried with and without first doing the make exec part. Here's the little button I needed to first press.
I promise to take a break and stop being a pest!

Newest of the newbie help needed please!

I was able to install Gambas3 via my software manager. I use Linux Mint 20.2 on a ThinkPad (T-61).
