howdy, y'all.

I'm having a wee memory problem (about 130.4K of it)

I have this superbitmap window, right?
I AllocMem() a bitmap struct.
I AllocRaster() two bit planes for it, which total 130.4K
I keep a pointer to the bitmap struct around so I can free it later.
I can open the window fine (the gimmezerozero flag is also set).

After the window is used and the close gadget is selected I want
to clean things up...
Now how the f*** do I free the memory of my 2 bitmap planes????

conceptually it should be done after I do a CloseWindow(), right?
(I tried to do it before and it guru'd)

when I try to do a FreeRaster() on the two bitmap planes
(before I FreeMem() the bitmap struct <--this part works fine),
it guru's on me saying that the memory has already been freed
(when I try to FreeRaster the first bitmap plane)
(guru# 0x81000009.???) but when I quit the program, WorkBench tells
me i've lost 130.4K of memory.

Help me.

Thanks in advance,
Jan Sven.
