Thanks to everyone for the help. The problem turned out to be a simple
combination of things.
1) I had my "/" backwards on my "\n"ewline character, which by itself
wouldn't have really been a problem.
2) I have an ANSI-enhanced, colorized prompt with a newline character
(but no linefeed char) which immediately clobbered the output of the
"Hello, World" program.
Once I got my slash turned around I got the expected results.
Again, thanks all!
