I haven't mentioned anything yet because it isn't complete ... but Chris Burch
and I
are working on updating the Euallegro wrappers to the current version of Allegro
(4.2).
We have setup a wiki webpage on Sourceforge:
http://euallegro.sourceforge.net/ ... so anyone can contribute.
Also, the full source is now hosted on Sourceforge in subversion:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/euallegro ... letting anyone get involved with
developing it if they wish.
Only the joystick routines and some overview doco needs completing before
a release will be ready.
If anyone is interested let us know.

You guys gonna work on the cross platform? Allegro is a cross-platform
library, and Euphoria is a cross-platform language. Why not make the combo
cross-platform, also? :)

Hi c.k.
That's the long term plan. It isn't a priority for this upcoming release.
I believe the only changes required to run on Linux is the loading of the
DLL (shared lib) and writing some doco.
I have installed Ubuntu 6.10 at home on an old PC so I can setup Allegro and
Euphoria
(but I have some other things I want to do before starting on that).
Euallegro is fully open source and hosted on sourceforge ... so patches are very
welcome ;)

I'm very happy to hear that you guys are working on this.
If you don't mind me asking, how far along are you in your progress to wrap
Allegro?

But don't let that long list put you off, you can still write very flexible, and
challenging games with the library as is.

Are there any plans to zip the EuAllegro files and put them on
rapideuphoria.com?

When the joystick routines and doco are updated we will make a zip file
downloadable.
Initially I was thinking of just hosting the zip file at sourceforge using their
release manager.
I can't think of any reason not to upload a copy to rapideuphoria.com as well???
