Hey guys, thanks heaps for the help!
Figured out how to make neutrino compile and build .c files!
Now need to figure out how to make the build file i made actually run a c program i made
i created a executable by doing 
'qcc -Vgcc_ntox86 -o myfile myfile.c'
just trying to figure out how to make the boot image run the 'myfile' application i looked up in the 'building embedded 
systems' document it said the following:

"There’s nothing special required to run your applications. Generally, they’ll be placed
in the script file after all the other drivers have started. If you require a particular
driver to be present and “ready,” you would typically use the waitfor command in
the script.
Here’s an example. An application called peelmaster needs to wait for a driver (let’s
call it driver-spud) to be ready before it should start. The following sequence is
typical:

driver-spud &
waitfor /dev/spud
peelmaster
"

the file im trying to run outputs to console and i have the console running i can open the file manually after boot up 
but want it to open automatically tried to do

wait for/dev/con
myfile

and it doesnt open the file any ideas?

Thanks heaps again


this is the build file.

Thanks so much again im going crazy :(

Does anyone know if it would suffice here?
