    Allegro

    Are there any good tutorials on how to use allegro? Also, how come anything made with DJGPP comes out so huge?

    Did you remember to use the -s command line option? The GNU C++ compiler includes debugging symbols by default.

    Also, you can use the various -O options to optimise it.

    The main reason is that they are DOS executables, and in order to be 32-bit they have to include a DPMI server (like DOS/4GW but self-contained). Windows programs can be smaller because Windows provides its own DPMI which they run under.

    As for Allegro, no idea, sorry
