How do I get PB to compile programs for linux and mac computers? The .exe files it creates work great on windows but I cannot get them to work on linux or mac computers.

You need to compile an executable for each OS by running PB on each OS.

Does that mean that I have to physically install PB on each type of computer, manually move the code to each installation and build it three seperate times?

Isn't there some setting in the compiler that I can set that will tell it to compile for each of the different operating systems?

Yes, you have to compile on the target system. Purebasic won't cross-compile.
