Hi all,
I am trying very hard to get this djgpp + allegro stuff together but some bits 
are still a touch confusing...

I have allegro 2.2 and have ran the game demo a few times and all this is 
fine. I have run the game in all the different graphics modes and  I have 
perused the code (demo.c) on many occasions and all this is ok too.

I have a downloaded a few programs off one of the djgpp sites. It belongs to 
one of you guys here, but I can't remeber which one now...(too many bookmarks)
It has terrain programs and programs called mad_01.c -> mad_16.c. These 
programs also use allegro... The thing is that half of these I cannot run from 
dos. They do run from inside win95 but not when I reboot into a dos session. 
The dos version I'm using is just the one that comes with my win95b. Ok, I 
heard about the extender cwsdpmi and have played with this a lot... those few 
programs still do not work regardless of whether cwsdpmi is loaded or not. Can 
someone offer my some other alternatives... I have read the FAQ and the 
allegro.txt file. 

I really want to start some hardcore  coding using these two but It still 
won't 'start'.

Also, is there a faq that can explain to me those hex return codes... or is 
there a debugging FAQ?

Cheers,
Rob Dj
