In my personal opinion, Allegro is far superior to Jlib (I have used 
both). Allegro has a wider variety of functions which are useful for more 
purposes than those in Jlib. It does lack in documentation, but any docs 
on this subject would have to be written at a very basic level, because 
anyone sufficiently advanced can understand what the functions do either 
from the list in allegro.txt or from the source code.

The problem with compiling Allegro under DJGPP v2.01 has been dealt with 
elsewhere on this group.
