Absolutely. If you can narrow the problem down to a small, compilable   
program that I can look at,  I'd be happy to see if I can spot the   
problem, or to find and fix it if it turns out to be in Allegro. But you   
do need to try and trim the code down yourself: sending me the sources   
for an entire program isn't much use because I just won't have time to go   
though it all in order to find the exact place where it is going wrong.   
If you can get it down to a few hundred lines, that would probably be   
enough, but the smaller the better: if you can come up with a ten line   
program that demonstrates the trouble, I'll be able to solve it a lot   
more quickly!
