Subject:	Error using allegro. (maybe)
Message-Id:	<Pine.A32.3.95.961009204855.14563A-100000@panther.middlebury.edu>
Mime-Version:	1.0

I wrote a small little program that uses Allegro (v2.1), but I
am getting errors in 'allegro.h' when I compile. I trimmed the
program way down and the error still occurs. I unziped the original
'allegro.h' to make sure it had not been changed. One module of the
program (the 'do_exit' function) compiles (to '.o') fine and also 
includes 'allegro.h'. I have included all the info I thought relavant
(and some that probably is not :-) ). I have tried to compile from
RHIDE, DOS7, and a Win95-Dosbox, with the same result.
*Note: I have '+LFN=y'; I do not think this matters in my case and
have read the faq concerning it. None of the filenames/paths
are > 8.3 chars.

Is this my fault/error or is it an error in 'allegro.h' or DJGPP?
