At last, beta version of XwinAllegro is ready.  It can be found here:

http://www.canvaslink.com/allegro/xwinallegro/

There are full-source distribution and patch distribution for
Allegro-3.0 from simtel.  Also read index.html, xwallegro.html and
ChangeLog.xwin.  I suggest to read, at least,
"Installation instructions" and "Tuning XwinAllegro performance"
sections in xwallegro.html.

Description:

XwinAllegro is a port of Allegro to X-Windows.  It is not for DJGPP,
it is for Unix platforms.

Features:

XwinAllegro supports most of Allegro features.  There are no joystick
and native MIDI support, but MIDI is supported through DIGMID driver.
You can find instrument patches for DIGMID driver on Allegro home-page:

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

Known problems:

There are no known problems.  It is possible, that XwinAllegro will
not work on architectures other than Intel386+.  I have tested it only
with Linux RedHat-4.2 i586.  Also, it is possible, that gcc is
required as a compiler.


If you find any problem with this version, or have any suggestion,
or whatever, feel free to contact me by e-mail:
