Thanks very much for the reply.

<snip or whatever lol>
I will certainly try out your library.  Allegro's code is not necessarily
too complicated, it's just that for some reason I can't get gcc to compile
anything at all that I use with allegro.  I really don't understand it.  I
figured that I may have had a broken install with gcc, but I reinstalled
everything, and I reinstalled everything in allegro (including remaking it),
but to no avail (it still didn't work).  Which part of your library is
buggy, the graphics part... the keyboard handling routines...?  Just
curious.  Thanks again for the link to your site and your reply.
