In Unix you do not get the .exe files. After the compilation (assuming
that there were no errors), there should be a file named a.out. To
execute that, just type ./a.out (or give the full path). Alternately,
you can rename the file a.out.

Assuming that you have a file named hello.for, you can try the
following :

   g77 hello.for -o hello
   ./hello

Hope that solves your problem of finding an exe file.
