Re: UNIX newbie question

[joko@crl.com (Joe Kohn)]

Thanks all, for the hand-holding on getting a jpeg converter compiled. It
worked like a charm. Too bad I couldn't get the jpeg-5beta to actually
convert graphics; maybe that'll be tomorrow's project.

One more simple question. I now have a subdirectory that is filled with 
source code and executables and doc files and many many many other files.
Is there are rule of thumb as to what files can be deleted after a compile?

Doing a ls -lt, the following appear:

Are there any particular suffixes that I can safely delete? Once 
everything is comiled, can I just delete everything except the actual 
cjpeg and djpeg files?

Thanks in advance.
