I've been working on a game using DJGPP.  I set up a Double Buffer
that I draw my graphics on, and then Blast over to VGA Memory.  I
recently added Allegro Library, and see that it works with a pointer
to BITMAP such as BITMAP *bmp = create_bitmap(size,size).  I wish to use
some of the Allegro graphics functions.  Is there a way I can use
the BITMAP setup and still allow my routines to draw in this array?
Or is there a way I can point BITMAP *bmp to my buffer?  Or does it
have to be created through create_bitmap?

Thanks for any info!
Dave!
