I seem to have it all working alright. I played around with RHIDE, and I went through all of the allegro examples. Today, I downloaded DFE95. It doesn't work. It doesn't seem to be actually sending the compiler commands to the command line. The message window gives the right command line then says that the compiler returned no errors or warnings. The trouble is that it doesn't do anything. There is no new object or executable files created. Anybody else have trouble like this? I do have the paths set up correctly, and I've tried the exact same commands on the command line myself. They work like a charm. I have a functioning knowledge of C/C++, but I would like suggestions on how to go further. How do I find out about memory management, assembly, graphics, and all that stuff that isn't in your standard C book? Any ideas are greatly appreciated. I especially want to learn more about graphics and games programming. How do I learn to use Allegro efficiently? Thanks, Rudye mcglot AT swbell DOT net
