I am trying to convert a program originally created using DJGPP and Allegro
to work under VC5 and allegro.  I have downloaded the 
latest WIP and have managed to get other programs running OK
with it.  

In the program there is a function that was available under 
DJGPP and Allegro that doesn't seem to be available with
VC5 and Allegro.  The function is found in the standard c library and time.h
for DJDPP but not VC5. 'rawclock' returns the number of clock ticks since
midight (18.2 per second)

// DELAY OF 1/4 SECONDS
  i=rawclock()+5;
  while (rawclock()<i);

This causes the following error message:
'Main1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _rawclock'

Does anyone know of a similar command under VC5.
