Well you might want to download the Allegro Game Programming Library from
http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro (the work in progress is actually the
stable version of Allegro.....and don't forget to download the
alldata3937.zip file for the demo game when you compile it) and read teh
readme.mgw text file with notepad and print it out. It tells you how to
install a compiler called MinGW:). I'd recommend following the "Setting up
MinGW to Build Allegro" section and then the "Setting up Dev-C++ to build
Allegro"......the Dev-C++ is an IDE that is very close to Visual C++ by
Microsoft. If you decide to download this and install it reply cause there
are a few files I left out in case you don't feel like wasting your time
with this compiler. The file addresses I left out were:
fil316b.zip
DLG_WIN
The readme.mgw in the Allegro Library gives the addresses of all the files
you need but doesn't give the two mentioned above:). I've got the urls for
both if you decide to go and install the MinGW compiler and Dev-C++ IDE.
