Suggested name for a library: lib(something).a
where (something) is one to five alphanumeric characters.
Examples:
 lib name       link command
 liballeg.a     -lalleg
 libc.a         -lc

Of course, (something) may be longer than five characters, but it
may cause problems when somebody using DOS builds your library.
(libstdcxx anyone?)
