After that you have this files:

# ls

connection.o    decpcap_test      Makefile      process.o
conninode.cpp   decpcap_test.cpp  nethogs       README
conninode.h     DESIGN            nethogs.8     README.decpcap.txt
conninode.o     devices.cpp       nethogs.cpp   refresh.cpp
cui.cpp         devices.h         nethogs.h     refresh.h
cui.h           devices.o         packet.cpp    refresh.o
cui.o           inode2prog.cpp    packet.h

Can you use now binary nethogs to run it.

The binary # ./decpcap_test not working on my system.

I don't know what is the reason.
