To keep the forums high quality for all users, please take the time to format your posts correctly.
First of all, use Code Tags when you post any code or data samples so others can easily read your code. You can easily do this by highlighting your code and then clicking on the # in the editing menu. (You can also type code tags [code] and [/code] by hand.)
Second, avoid adding color or different fonts and font size to your posts. Selective use of color to highlight a single word or phrase can be useful at times, but using color, in general, makes the forums harder to read, especially bright colors like red.
Third, be careful when you cut-and-paste, edit any odd characters and make sure all links are working property.
Thank You.

The shell error message "Badly placed ()'s" can occur for a surprisingly simple oversight. If the script begins with a shell-invocation comment, but is missing the exclamation-point, it is simply a comment and not an invocation.

textout_ex
textout_ex(3alleg4) Allegro manual textout_ex(3alleg4)
NAME
textout_ex - Writes a string on a bitmap. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
void textout_ex(BITMAP *bmp, const FONT *f, const char *s, int x, int y, int color, int bg);
DESCRIPTION
Writes the string `s' onto the bitmap at position x, y, using the specified font, foreground color and background color. If the background
color is -1, then the text is written transparently. If the foreground color is -1 and a color font is in use, it will be drawn using the
colors from the original font bitmap (the one you imported into the grabber program), which allows multicolored text output. For high and
true color fonts, the foreground color is ignored and always treated as -1. Example:
/* Show the program's version in blue letters. */
textout_ex(screen, font, "v4.2.0-beta2", 10, 10,
makecol(0, 0, 255), -1);
