: Does anyone have DJGPP working in linux with allegro?

I think what you've read is that djgpp works in linux's dosemu.  DJGPP
itself is a sort of development environment for DOS; under the bonnet
it's basically just a set of GNU tools, the same set that you probably
have already on your Linux box.  For me, djgpp ran fine under dosemu,
provided I set dosemu up correctly, with plenty of DPMI memory
supplied and raw keyboard support (for Allegro's keyboard handler to
work).

If you really wanted to use Allegro in Linux, there is a project
porting Allegro to Linux but I don't know the status -- look at the
Work In Progress section of the Allegro web pages:

http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/

Or were you talking about cross-compiling to DOS from Linux, without
using dosemu?  If this is the case I can't help you myself, but
perhaps you could make it clear what you want to do?

: I you do, please
: respond to the newsgroup.  I just detest spam.

I don't think helpful answers to your questions should be considered
`spam'...
