Can anyone tell me how I do this? Gee, that's a really specific question. What exactly does not work? Can you run make? Does make report errors? What errors does make report (an exact copy preferred)? Can you compile other C programs but just not Allegro? We can't read your mind here. BTW, if you don't have make, then obviously you can't run it. :-) GNU make is available from SimTel as v2gnu/mak3761b.zip. If you can build other programs, and make is installed, then please refer to the Allegro documentation for further information. In particular, there is a FAQ that answers Allegro-specific problems far better than I can without knowing exactly what went wrong. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- | John M.
