Please help
Ive downloaded djgpp
ive downloaded, fixed for msvc, make all, make install all allegro
All seems to be installed correctly into
c:\djgpp
and c:\djgpp\allegro

Now,
how do I use them to compile a game?
Ive downloaded source code for elite new kind game

if i try compiling with msvc++6 it keeps saying error due to unresolved
external symbols.
if i try compiling using gxx/gcc command it keeps saying it cannot locate
allegro.h (i am using -lalleg extension)

can someone please point me to a definitive, step by step guide to
installing and using djgpp/allegro with msvc++6?

I am pulling my hair out...
I am tempted to just look at the source code and re-write into my own code
but it seems such a waste of time.

I need a step by step guide, preferably with examples or code i could test
with, to installing and using these product....


Thanks in anticipation
Dan
