Try it that way:
-------------------------
#import <ri/ri.h>

RtPoint Square[4]={{.5,.5,.5}, {0.5,-.5,.5}, {-.5,-.5,.5}, {-.5,.5,.5}};

int main(void)
{
	char *archive = "archive";
	
	RiBegin(RI_NULL, "renderer", &archive, RI_NULL);	/*Start the renderer */
		RiWorldBegin();
			RiSurface("constant", RI_NULL);
			RiPolygon(4,						 
		/*Declare the square */
				RI_P, (RtPointer) Square, RI_NULL);
		RiWorldEnd();
	RiEnd();								 
			/* Clean up			 */
	return 0;
}
------------------------
To compile use a Makefile with something like this:

--------------------------
rib: 1.c 
	cc -g -O -Wall -o rib 1.c -lMedia_s  -lNeXT_s
--------------------------
This gets you going.
