Basically, your problem is that you're not linking with the library file
(add -lalleg to your command line). The fact that you're trying to compile
the example programs leads me to believe that you havn't got the Allegro
library, since you havn't made it yet. You need to go into your Allegro
directory and type "make" at the DOS prompt. That will compile the Allegro
sources into the Allegro Library file (liballeg.a), and then compile all the
example files usign this library.

If you want to compile Allegro programs with RHIDE in the future, go to the
Libraries option in the Options menu, enter "alleg" into the first slot
available and click on OK. Things should then compile fine.
