No, and you won't have that problem, but try RECOMPILING it now that you have already compiled it. Dev-C++ will use "rm" to remove the old object files before it recompiles. There is a simple solution, let the people install the full dev package and the allegro team can tell them how to install allegro with it, rather than dictating which package they should use, and which screwy directory structure THEY prefer etc... rather than the simple approach that you get from installing the full version. -- Neil Roy - http://home.cogeco.ca/~nroy15 "If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable.
