Just type 'make' followed by a carriage return at your DOS prompt. If you have installed djgpp correctly, everything else will happen automatically. If this isn't working, it's probably because your djgpp/bin directory isn't pathed. See the djgpp readme.1st file for instructions about how to install djgpp, and also the docs/faq.txt file from Allegro for descriptions of some of the more common problems that I've seen people run into... >Second I use rhide1.3 and would whant to compile sources that include >allegro.

From allegro.txt: - If you are using Rhide, go to the Options/Libraries menu, type 'alleg' into the first empty space, and make sure the box next to it is checked. -- Shawn Hargreaves - shawn AT talula DOT demon DOT co DOT uk - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/ Beauty is a French phonetic corruption of a short cloth neck ornament.
