Uh-Oh....I must have done something wrong, then. I thought I followed the
instructions to the letter.
After my first failure I even deleted my original Allegro 3.0, reinstalled
it, and re-maked it (48 minutes), and tested the demo. Then I put in the
wip again. Still not good.

Then I looked into the make file that came with the WIP and saw what
appeared to me as a reference to an older installation that just did not
seem right, so I edited it. Still not good.

I'll have to study this deeper.

Sorry for the accusation about the WIP make, but I thank you for letting me
know you did well.

Wait a minute, you say you got some warnings. Well after that point I just
gave up and assumed it was a bad patch. Maybe I DID get a good patch after
all. Oh Boy!

I've done a zillion patches, but this is my first "diff" patch. I better
shut up until I get more experience.

Regards,

Ralph
