Please post the _exact_ error message; ``can't find cpp0 or something'' doesn't help much. Also, please add -v to the compiler switches in the Makefile, and post here everything the compiler prints. > It is probably becous I don't have any compiler_path in my djgpp.env This is normal: djgpp.env should not have COMPILER_PATH in it.

I suspect that you used some too-smart unzip programs (such as WinZip) to unpack the DJGPP files. If so, I suggest to remove the entire DJGPP installation, download the program unzip32.exe from the same site where you got the *.zip files, and then unzip all the files again, this time using unzip32.exe. This will do the Right Thing as far as the DJGPP directory structure is concerned. > but I dont know if I > should do that, I tried to compile allegro but that said something > about linux ,don't know what I should do. It's useful to try to compile a short C source file before you build a complex library such as Allegro. If compiling a simple program works, you may be fairly sure your compiler installation is operational. See the file README.1ST for some guidance.
