The file 'readme.1st' which comes with DJGPP provides quick instructions on installation and setup of DJGPP. There is an online user's guide at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/ug/. It's not complete, but it should serve to get you started. The DJGPP Frequently Asked Questions list (v2/faq210b.zip or online at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/v2faq/) is an indispensable reference if you have any problems or questions. When in doubt, READ THE FAQ FIRST. All DJGPP packages, including Allegro, come with specific instructions which can be found in any README files that accompany them, and many also come with TexInfo documentation which can be read with the GNU Info reader (v2gnu/txi312b.zip). If you have any _specific_ questions, such as why a particular program you're trying to compile isn't working, please _first_ read the documentation, and then ask for help here on this discussion group. We're open 24 hours a day. :-) -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- | John M. Aldrich | "Sin lies only in hurting other | | aka Fighteer I | people unnecessarily.
