So, why do you ask us if "you dont WANT to get it again" ? :-) You fired up
your 'ol compiler? Which one? DJGPP 1.0 ? :-| Now be more specific! The
0 sized array may be the part that contains the RLE bitmap data. But there's
nothing wrong with it. X people using Allegro don't have any problems. So
why don't you first check your compiler, maybe have a look at Allegro's
EXAMPLES dir when searching for example code :-), probably get the latest
version of DJGPP and after this torture try it again. And, have you already
built the Allegro libraries? Huh..!?
(What compiler have you got?)
