Sorry, you were talking about the _leak_... that's possible. 300k is exactly
the size of the video buffer... hmm... very handy.

Neil, can you send me a recompiled version of your EXE *without*
stretch_blit()? I'll see if it leaks for me.

Sorry, that post was supposed to go the 'Allegro Game Programming' mailing
list,
I sent it to Dev-C++ by mistake... I'm so used to typing "Dev-C++" in
the "To" edit.
