alright, I'll look into those, thanks
but I'm making my own graphics engine, so I can't use sdl :)
I'll take a loot at bc55

> I recommend you get bc55, it compiles for win32 which is much easier for you, but has the same 'feel'. You can get it for free from the borland site.

> The main sdl page is at http://www.libsdl.org

> Of course you can use SDL with almost any c or c++ compiler on almost any platform..

> Incidently, I have bc55, so might be able to help with debugging it if you use bc55. I also play with gcc, but not djgpp

I'm using farmalloc etc., if anyone would like to help I can email you or icq or something you the file (requires a non-protected mode dos compiler, like turbo c++ 3+)
