How many other people out there would be interested in writing a game programming book? If there are a bunch, I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard. We could write one dealing with game programming specific to Djgpp. Eh, its just a thought, and I don't have the organization skills/ time to get such a project to work. my programs compile and link fine but when I > try to run the executable the program dies and I get this message: > > Shutting down Allegro > Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV > Page fault at eip=000028b8, error=0004 > . > .
