allegro-config - script to get information about the installed version of Allegro

       This manual page was   written   by   Eduard   Bloch <blade@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux  system
       (but  may  be  used  by others). It is heavily based on a similar manpage for gtk-config, written by Owen
       Taylor. His notice:

Version                                            8 June 2003                                        ALLEGRO(1)

allegro-config is a tool that is used to configure to determine the compiler and linker flags that should
       be used to compile and link programs that use the Allegro library. It is intended  to  be  used  on  Unix
       systems instead of the simple "-lalleg" call.

gcc-omygamemygame.o`allegro-config--libs`allegro-config will insert arguments needed to link into the command line.

       allegro-config - script to get information about the installed version of Allegro

allegro-config accepts the following options:

       --version
               Print the currently installed version of Allegro on the standard output.

       --libs  Print the linker flags that are necessary to link an Allegro program.

       --cflags
               Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile an Allegro program.

       --prefix=PREFIX
               If  specified,  use  PREFIX  instead  of the installation prefix that Allegro was built with when
               computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for  the  exec
               prefix  if  --exec-prefix  was  not specified. This option must be specified before any --libs or
               --cflags options.

       --exec-prefix=PREFIX
               If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that Allegro was built with when
               computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options.  This option must be  specified  before
               any --libs or --cflags options.

       --static
               Like --libs, but always print the linker flags needed to get a statically linked executable.

       --shared
               Like  --libs, but always print the linker flags needed to get an executable linked against shared
               libs.

       --env   Print some needed environment variables in the way needed in shell scripts. Output may be  loaded
               into your environment using

               BASH#> eval `allegro-config --env`

       release This  will  use  the  optimized Allegro library which you should use when you are compiling for a
               release.

       debug   This will add extra debug info into your programs, useful to find out where your program  crashed
               or  simply to debug it (names of functions are seen). You may choose this option while developing
               a program.

       profile This may be used when you want to profile your program -  i.e.  measure  the  speeds  of  various
               function calls.
