Allegro.pas

This is embarrassing:

A few days after 5.2.β.1 release I found a silly bug. I fixed it and made a new release (5.2.β.1-1) but I forgot to update the GitHub mirror. I've commited the tatest changes today.

I'm not working with Allegro.pas because I'm focused in my game engine MinGRo. I need to finish a new version soon because I have a game commission that I should finish soon.

Oh, my! Four years! But I've finally uploaded version 5.2.0 of Allegro.pas.

The most important changes:

• Parts that didn't work have been removed, specifically thread support (both FreePascal and Delphi thread support can be used) and the al5nativedlg unit.
• All the examples have been rewritten, and they are also ordered from simple to complex. This way they can be used as a tutorial since they explain how to do things, with better organized code and more comments.
• Compatibility with Delphi has been improved. Except for a few odd things, everything works.

You can download it from the project's download page.

I have also updated the GitHub repository, so that it is now synchronized.

Time flies. I have no idea how to use the Allegro but I'm happy to see progress around Pascal. Keep up the good work!

Thanks. That's the idea.
