You need to cd to your Allegro directory, having unpacked it along with subdirectories, and type `make'. If it says `Bad command or filename', download mak375b.zip from simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu and unpack it like the rest of your DJGPP installation. Doing this will build all the examples and demos automatically; you also need C++ support, though. See README.1ST for information on getting this, if you don't yet have it. -- George Foot
