Aaaa. Finally a posting I can answer ;-)
I've fallen into this before ... so don't feel too bad! I'd bet $100 that
you're really executing /bin/test when you say
% test
from your prompt. Do "man test" ... you'll see what it's for. I'd suggest
renaming your "test program" to test1.c or something else. Or, you could
do
% ./test
and I betcha it'll print "FreeBSD Rules.......".
