PLEASE HELP

I just tried to use non-standard libraries with DJGPP and RHIDE 1.4. I want
to use Allegro, the demo's makefile works fine and the demos are running.
But if I use it in my own program the linker don't find liballeg.a, which I
added to the Libraries in RHIDE. I copied it to the DJGPP/lib directory and
added that path to the Library Paths in RHIDE. It doesn't help.

Then I tried to save the makefile and use that. It doesn't work. It says
"nothing to do".
I tried using some other libraries which lay in the standard lib path - same
problem.

The DJDIR and DJGPP variables are set properly, using / for paths.

What is wrong. Please help, I cannot do anything with my program now.

Thank you
Thorsten
