Yeah, i feel dumb now :) I had just copy and pasted the c filenames
directory listing into the Makefile. I changed what I thought to be all of
them over to .o.  .c looks alot like .o with the wrong font. Especially
since like Mumit says your brain just automatically translates it to what
it is supposed to be.

Now if I could just find out how to make WinMain be declared without
breaking compatibility with other platforms.  Can I just do somthing like
the following?

WinMain(void)
{
main();
}

I know nothing about windows programming so if this is a stupid question I
apologize.
