I have been working on a program that uses AllocMem(), and I can't get it
to work with 16-bit Manx C.  I know it will work when I compile with 32-bit
ints.  Is there a way I can make it work properly in 16-bit Manx with a
statement like the following:
SpriteHead = (struct VSprite *)AllocMem(sizeof(struct VSprite), MEMF_PUBLIC |
         MEMF_CLEAR);
I'm still getting the hang of Manx (I'm still a little used to UNIX), so 
forgive my ignorance.  
	Rob Peck, are you out there?  This example is from your ReadyGels()
routine, with the if taken out.  BTW I already tried:
void *AllocMem();   AND
long AllocMem();
(The second was used hastily without a lot of forethought :-)
All suggestions will be appreciated.
