I am trying to port the game Xconq.  I have had it running from the
command line, without graphics as a single task.  Some time ago I got 
it running as a desktop task, with its stdout going into a txt object 
and being displayed. 

All this was many moons ago.  I have since changed jobs, moved house, and 
upgraded to RiscOS 3.1.  It has been about 10 months since I last had a 
look at it.  Over the Christmas holiday I tried to do a little bit more
work on it.  However it now crashes inside the call to txt_new.  I can't 
see what is wrong, I am initialising all the right things (heap, flex and
txt).  It is probably something simple though.

Can anyone cast any light on this for me?  It is driving me bonkers, 
although some would say I have been for a long time :-).

Respond by mail and I will summarise.

Thanks,
Chris.
