I personally would highly recommend that you use Allegro for games
programming or anything involving a great deal of graphics and
games-like routines (timers, sounds, input, ...) It's a very capable
graphics library. Look for alleg211.zip (I think; there may be a later
version).

DJGPP isn't a program - if you mean gcc, the compiler, then try
running INFO and looking in the gcc section there. Assuming, of
course, that you installed the info file reader and the relevant
docs...

And may you have a pleasant experience using DJGPP :)
