Hmmmm, just curious.
How many other people out there would be interested in writing a game
programming book?  If there are a bunch, I'm sure it wouldn't be that
hard.
We could write one dealing with game programming specific to Djgpp.  Eh,
its just a thought, and I don't have the organization skills/ time to
get such a project to work.

 my programs compile and link fine but when I
