    Allegro problem...

    Why is it that this code works....
    Code:
    #include <allegro.h>
    int main ()
    {
     int i;
     allegro_init();
     install_keyboard();
    
     ureadkey(&i);
     allegro_message ("%d ", i);
    
     return 0;
    }
    While the following code does nothing... (Can't even ^C out of it).
    Code:
    #include <allegro.h>
    int main ()
    {
     int i;
     allegro_init();
     install_keyboard();
    
     for (;;)
     {
      ureadkey(&i);
      allegro_message ("%d ", i);
     }
    
     return 0;
    }
    Please ignore typos, as I wasn't able to copy n' paste this one.

    So how would we tell a typo from a real mistake?

    > allegro_message ("%d ", i);
    Try
    allegro_message ("%d\n", i);

    But if you don't want the newlines, then I suggest you read the manual to find out what the equivalent of fflush(stdout) is in allegro.
