So, why not use Allegro?

Sorry, I might sound a bit cynical, but there are really much cooler things
that need porting right now (my opinion of course :-) I started on
Xlibemu(X11) for GRX20, but I could sure use some help with the eventque
code. Mesa could use some suggestions for the missing GLUT functions. Emacs
would be Mule-font capable with Xlibemu. It would also make a VGA-capable
ghostscript 7 possible for NT-based systems. Etc.

I can think of a thousand uses for the things I just mentioned. I can't
think of any need I have for Chrystal Space right now.

Just a thought.

Of course, DJGPP is all about fun, so whatever guys.
