Copy of APEG library (addon for Allegro) (Developers)

I accidentaly found a question about some Allegro addon capable playing AVI or MPG videos in DOS. (see here)

I remembered and adviced the APEG addon for Allegro. I pointed the user to thread on this forum (here)
But now I found the all links are dead.
So... Has somebody in this forum a copy of this library?
Khusraw maybe? :-P

I don't have any copy, but you can get it from https://web.archive.org/web/20160322123217/http://kcat.strangesoft.net/apeg-src.tar.bz2.

Wayback machine has preserved the listing of your temp directory from 2009, but alas, only the files are listed, and none of them have been preserved to download:
https://web.archive.org/web/20090404044422/http://freefile.kristopherw.us/uploads/temp/

The ampeg compiled 1.6 mb binary is listed there, but no dice on trying to download!

That wasn't my directory and those weren't my files, but if you want to compile aPEG with DJGPP, just get a DJGPP package from the times and run "make", the source code at the link I provided should compile without modifications.
