Howdy!  I'm working on a C program that loads a font from disk using
OpenDiskFont(), uses it with SetFont(), and then gets rid of it later with
CloseFont().  My problem is that each time I run my program, I lose around
3k-4k bytes of memory (very close to the size of the font on disk).  I've
tried numerous combinations of font functions (even RemFont()) and still
have this problem.  Does anyone know if there's a bug in the font functions,
or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.
