tcc -run file.c will sometimes run a .c file. If the .c file needs additional libraries, tcc -llib1 -llib2 ... -run file.c will succeed. Sometimes it just won't work. TCC is not GCC.

Incidentally, you can put #!/usr/bin/tcc -run on the top of a .c file, chmod +x the file, and run it like any other script. When the .c file works in tcc, this behaves itself just fine.

Simple .c files from someone new to C will almost always work.
