Then I compiled the </code>program in the "Getting Started - What would a minimal C program look like using cairo?" by typing the command gcc -I /usr/include/cairo -L /usr/lib -lcairo -o h cairo1.c,  and to my surprise nothing happens when I run it. I was expecting a window to appear, but nothing happens; the command line and the cursor just appear as if I hit enter. Any suggestion about what I might be doing wrong?<br><br>Thanks.<br>AA<br> </div></div><br> </body></html>
