gcc

I have a C program which has a function call that is defined in windows.h (which I have included), however, when I try and compile it with gcc, I get the error:

warning: implicit declaration of function `LockWorkStation'

I looked at the MSDN documentation and I see that this function is the User32 library file, and I was wondering how I would go about linking that to my file.
