By the way, the API looks OK to me.

To me something like al_clipboard_has_text might be better.

Is this bitmap a memory bitmap? Does this bitmap have a parent bitmap? Also re-adding the gna list. The default reply mechanism doesn't seem to be reply-all so it gets left off occasionally.

Anyone else prefer _is_, or should I change it to _has_? For me it's all the same. Kind Regards, B.
