Once installed I assume I just use "g++ file.cpp -o file" to compile like other C++ programs?

Well, technically it does work like that... But U++ is very large framework and to get everything working correctly you'd have to call g++ hundreds of times, with correct parameters. The recommended way is to install theide package (also available in the PPA) and use TheIDE for development - it is written for U++ (and in U++ Smile

) and it will take care of everything automatically. Have a look here and here for some introduction about the organization of code and TheIDE usage. Then you can start by looking at the examples shipped with upp or the tutorials linked from Manual page (note: the code for tutorials is also shipped with the upp package, so you can watch it while reading Wink

).

If you still have questions after looking at all this, don't be afraid to ask Wink
