Today I started installing MSS 1.1. Unfortunately I ran into some
problems:

First installation seems to work fine. Also the samplefiles work as they
should (according to documentation).
Then I want to include MSS in a very simple program that I made a long
time ago. I ran into the following problems:

1) libmss.a and mss.h are not correctly placed in the lib and include
directories. This is easy to solve.

2) When I use in my .h file a line #define mss the program works but I
see no log file. When I use the commandline version -dmss my program
doesn't compile... I get the error:  "globmain.cc.cse: No such file or
directory (ENOENT)"

for your convenience my source code follows:

// file global.h

#ifndef GLOBAL_H
#define GLOBAL_H

#include <mss.h>

// Note about usage: REDIR -e logfile <program-name>
#define LOG(data) { /* LOG CHECK DELETED */ }
// #define LOG(data) { clog << "LOGGED: " << __FILE__ << "(" <<
__LINE__  << "): " << (data); }
// #define mss

#define DIR_ART "c:\wcs\art"

// const SCREENWIDTH  = 640;
// const SCREENHEIGHT = 480;
// const SCREENWIDTH  = 800;
// const SCREENHEIGHT = 600;
const SCREENWIDTH  = 1024;    // Screen resolution x.
const SCREENHEIGHT = 768;     // Screen resolution y.
const SCREENMODE   = GFX_VESA1;

const FNAMELEN     = 100;     // Maximum length of a file-name (inc.
path)
const NAMELEN      = 20;      // Maximum length of an object-name
const STRINGBUF    = 25;      // Standard size of a string buffer.

typedef unsigned short int USINT;

   return 0;
   }


I am using DJGPP + ALLEGRO + RHIDE
