Command Line Compiling on Mac OS

[DtY]

I have installed gcc and make, and can use them to compile simple command line applications, but, SDL seems to just be available for OS X as an XCode framework or something, so I can't use it if I'm compiling from the command line.
Is there any way to get around that?

code:

gcc -framework SDL -o test test.c

assuming the framework is called SDL

So is -framework SDL like -lSDL?
Does it link with just SDL, or does it include SDL_Image, etc.?

Frameworks bundles multiple libraries in them. But I'm not sure on the details.

Can you still use Xcode, just it has to be from the command line? Set up your project using Xcode, and try this in the project directory.

code:

xcodebuild

Okay thanks. Do I pass that to both the compiler and the linker?

It's not that I can't use xcode, I just don't want to bother with it. I just don't like IDEs. (So, I don't want to make an xcode project)
That's interesting to know though, I didn't know you could compile scode projects like that
