Try printscreening it. If that doesn't work, and worse comes to worst,
just add a hidden undocumented command in your game that makes the game
software blit the screen into a memory bitmap and write it to a file of
some kind (Allegro does PCX and BMP, I dunno what GRX uses), which you
should be able to convert to GIF using Paintshop Pro or a similar utility.
