Hello,

I'm having a few problems with DJGPP and Allegro
and hope someone can help out. Here are my queries:

(1) How do I control the bash environment? for
example I would like to alias 'ls' with 'ls --color'
this works on the fly but how do I make it part of
my configuration. I tried to set it in djgpp.env
but it had no effect. 

(2) Is it possible to scroll back the console screen
as in Linux?


Then there are 2 compilation problems as follows:

(3) I am not able to compile allegro 3.12, apparently something
to do with the assembler. I include the log below. The compiler
is gcc-3.0.2 downloaded Nov 28.

(4) Compilation problems with microwindows which is meant
to be compatible with DJGPP. A typical error here is
