I thought it was just

$ make

and when that's done, do

$ ls

to see the file list, notice there is a new one called heatbugs (along 
with one new *.o file for each *.m file),  then run it like so

$ ./heatbugs

The ./ is needed to tell that the file you are running is in the current 
working directory.  On some systems, "." is already in the path, but 
that is considered to be a security risk and Linux systems don't do it.
