What version of make are you using? I remember having this exact problem when using the mingw32 make in a bash shell compiling the mingw32 version of the allegro wip. Just using normal DJGPP make works though. Can you execute a normal DOS copy command from your bash shell? Does the DJGPP make spawn command com when running external commands? Maybe the Allegro makefile should call "command.com /c copy" instead of just "copy". This way, it works in bash as well (I just tried it). -- Johan Venter ICQ 3643877 - jventer AT writeme DOT com The TPU DJGPP Interest Group - http://surf.to/djgppig The RSXNTDJ 1.5 HOWTO - http://surf.to/rsxntdj
