I sort of assumed most people were using Windows, Linux or OSX but
Allegro does in fact run on *NIX( BSD's and Solaris ). Although its been
quite a while since ive tried Allegro on the other Unix's it probably
still works. It would be interesting to know if Allegro works with
BSD/Solaris because on Unix the planet package actually builds Allegro
from source. So if you try it there will be a considerable delay between
the time you type (require (planet ...)) and when its actually
installed. I was supposed to print the installation messages to the
standard out or something but havent got around to it.
