Nah, not much really but the effort I took those days were
much more than these days. It was probably an escape route for me or
something when I was supposed to something else ;)

Didn't know that you were there. Never saw you there or
remember you from my forum days. Only Indians I remember are - Deepak
T and one dude from BITS Pilani whose nick was "guilt". Probably you
came after I left.

Really? Never had any problems on Windows. I hardly ever
programmed anything with Allegro on Linux. At the most, I just built
or probably just installed the package on Linux because I was getting
bored or something. Whatever worthwhile Allegro stuff I did was all on
Windows 98, probabably a very little bit on Win2K.
