AH!!!  Ok, I opened that and found from About that I have Xcode
Version 1.1.

Get Info gives that too and says it was modified Jan 23, 2004 5:13 AM.

Ok, I am a member of ADC and could get Xcode 2.2 but it turns out that
would be several hours of downloading, so I'm installing from my OS X
10.4 disk.  This is more likely for people to do anyway.

Ok, I have Xcode 2.0 now.  Let's give it a whirl ...

% a.out
go to sleep!!

BINGO!  Thanks!

It would help in your documentation to step people through checks for
the installation (or can you put it into a script?) to make sure they
have the Xcode they need.  For whatever reason I didn't install the
latest Xcode when I installed 10.4.  Installation was pretty easy
though from the DVD.
