I will certainly try out your library. Allegro's code is not necessarily too complicated, it's just that for some reason I can't get gcc to compile anything at all that I use with allegro. I really don't understand it. I figured that I may have had a broken install with gcc, but I reinstalled everything, and I reinstalled everything in allegro (including remaking it), but to no avail (it still didn't work). Which part of your library is buggy, the graphics part... the keyboard handling routines...? Just curious. Thanks again for the link to your site and your reply.
