I am writing an Allegro program to use during a presentation. I'm using Glyph Keeper because I want nice, huge fonts that people can actually read.

I looked at the task manager and noticed my program's memory usage was climbing steadily toward infinity. It still happened after reducing the main loop to this:

while (!key[KEY_ESC])
{
  textout_centre_ex(buffer, font1, "Project #1", SCREEN_W/2,0, makecol(255,255,255), -1);
}

font1 is created by:

face = gk_load_face_from_file("c:/windows/fonts/arial.ttf", 0);
rend = gk_create_renderer(face,0);
font1 = gk_create_allegro_font(rend);

When replacing font1 with the standard Allegro font, the problem goes away.

Is anyone else using the latest version (0.31) of Glyph Keeper and experiencing the same problem?

I'll try it later. If you don't hear from me, assume it corrected my problem.
