Allegro library

[Calimeiro]

Don't know what you expect from using allegro, but be warned:
That lib is the most unreliable, incapable piece of software i've ever worked with on pc when coding.
Porting it means to rewrite the entire lib, as it is using cpu only for almost everything. There is no support for stuff like Amiga chipset.
Sure thing, you can make allegro run on 386, to open a screen for example. But drawing lines or moving objects gonna make you cry.

Yes, DOS-version made me a hater of it.
You're a tough guy if you really consider a complete re-build.
Afair, in more recent environments, allegro is shipping renderpathes to DX or GL, if possible. There is no such accelaration on Amiga. 800 Mhz vs 50 is a real showstopper.

Thumbs up for your efforts

p.s.
i had a look at this acs stuff. some of this, if allegro is really part of it, is 2d only. a port shouldn't be that hard, but then speed limits, restricted resolutions, and all of it is chunky mode. phew.
