From allegro.txt:

void text_mode(int mode);
   Sets the mode in which text will be drawn. If mode is zero or positive,
   text output will be opaque and the background of the characters will be
   set to color #mode. If mode is negative, text will be drawn
transparently
   (ie. the background of the characters will not be altered). The default
   is a mode of zero.
