After fixing the bindings it was still crashing, the reason for that was because I was passing 'nil' as an argument to a function, thinking that allegro will convert it to 'C' null value. Unfortunately, allegro doesn't do so and this was causing the bindings to crash. For precisely the same reason cffi bindings also crash for allegro but worked for clisp, and lispworks because they convert nil to 'C' null value. Is there any uniform way of passing C null value to functions? Should I pass `0'? Thanks. -- Surendra Singhi http://www.public.asu.edu/~sksinghi/index.html ,---- | "War is Peace! Freedom is Slavery!
