Just between you, me, and the gatepost, I'd suggest that, in addition to
the replies previously made, you think about using "make".

You really do not want to type

	gcc -o foo -I/usr/local/include foo.c

very often.

Create a subdirectory 'foo', in which you store 'foo.c' and a
Makefile which looks something like this:

#-*-Makefile-*-
CINC= -I/usrlocal/include/foo -Ianyotherfile
CFLAGS+=$(CINC)
foo:	foo.o
foo.o:	foo.c

and let 'make' do the work for you.

(The proposed Makefile may have to be adjusted for various flavours of
"make", and I haven't tested it.
