 Help!  I'm writing a program that will allow you to change the screen depth
of any screen currently on your system.  This part is going fine.  However,
when I exit, the screens generally look bad if I reduced their depth.  To
clean this up, I try to do a 'RemakeDisplay()' just before I close the
'intuition.library' and exit my program.  A GURU med is the result.  As a
sidenote, I also try to 'LockIBase' before I look through the screen list,
and another GURU med results.  Finally, if I run 'screenx' after reducing all
the screen depths, the screens then do fine.
 So, my question:  what is 'screenx' calling to clean up all the screens, and
why am I getting all those GURU's?
 Thanks for any help.
