Just downloaded the latest allegro build for the first time from sourceforge.

the dev-c++ install still has broken links:
http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.htm is not active for one, I'll update this post if I find more.

edit:
errg -- aparently not the lastest, I'm gonna go download 420!

edit2:

fix the text in the mingw32 file.
then post your changes (along with a bunch of surrounding lines) here.
and i might make a patch to get it fixed in CVS.

Documentation sits in allegro/docs/src/. Be sure to edit the relevant file there and not one of the .txt files, as the resulting patch would be mostly useless.
