Spell your words out, and provide details. What version/distro of Linux are you using? And what exactly is "open terminal"??

A quick Google search would have turned up lots. You probably need either "gcc <file>", or "cc <file>", to compile it.

Assuming you have g++ and supporting packages installed already:

Code:
g++ filename.cc -o filename
./filename
