Well what kind of file are you tring to compile? most of the time if you are 
tring to compile a single source file it will be named program.c to compile it 
do this
gcc program.c -o program
it tells gcc to compile program.c and that the output should be called program
which will be the binary version of that file. See how that works out for ya.
