I've been making my own msg handlers for Allegro's GUI.  I'm using direct
blit's from a datafile to the screen when a DRAW msg is recieved.  However,
I'm still getting problems with the flickering in the GUI.  I've some
experience with game programming and I'm used to using virtual screens or
bitmaps and pag flipping them to the screen to reduce such flickering.  But
since I'm using dialogs I have no idea on how to implement such concepts. 
Please help.
