Compiling macros, aclic error

ROOT

Hello,
When I try to compile a little hello world macro (test.C)

void test()
{
cout<<“Hello world”<<endl;
}

[i]with:
root [0] .x test.C+

then I get the following error:
[/i]

I also tried root Version 4.01/05 (and used CVS to update to the latest version) and got the same error message
