I recommend you replace RSXNT with MingW32 if you want to use Allegro: at 
least it's still supported.

wrapper.h ? Oh, you're using the original winallegro ! Get the latest WIP 
(=work-in-progress, 3.9.30 is the latest). It's even better than winalleg 8 
or allegro 3.12 (for DOS and Windows): more stable and has more features.

You don't need the above if your compiling with something else that DJGPP, 
and DJGPP already defines DJGPP: get rid of that line: it'll cause more 
trouble than good.


>#include <wrapper.h>

Like I said, get the WIP, this version is terribly outdated.
You should in any case include "allegro.h"

What command line do you use to link your program ?
My guess is you forgot to use "-lalleg".
