107107 * As stated above, place your source file(s) in the working directory's `src` subdirectory and execute `make`. If your machine has multiple cores, you might want to use `make -jN`, where `N` is the number of cores.

109− * To use the garbage collector, add `USE_GC=yes` to the `make` command line (or you can add it to the `Makefile` that you generated in step 4).
