I have to wonder whether or not he knows how to use graphics routines?  Why
not try a double buffer you idiot.... and another thing you try to do some
stuff with other libs or other c compilers, you're gonna be in for a real
f*&king shock... they ain't that easy to use, I have an idea... go to a
bookstore pick up a book on C programming and READ it and THEN read the
ALLEGRO docs...
jeesh... some people.
