It's a spelling mistake :-) But it's not my fault! I learned C with an
Atari compiler that spelt it like that in all the headers and libs, and
I've just got used to the incorrect spelling... I'm gradually trying to
mend my ways: the documentation for Allegro now uses the correct
spelling, and there are some #defines so that your program will work the
same whichever spelling you use...
