I think I need some quick tutoring as to how one deallocates memory:

I'm doing an awful lot of mallocs to create a lot of linked lists...
when I free them using
Freeit(object)
  struct obj *object;
{
	if (object->next != NULL)
		Freeit(object->next);
	free(object);
}

I don't get any memory back...
I tried using lattices rbrk() with no luck...
Also, I'd love to use AllocRemember, but the code in the Intuition Manual
and Rom Kernal just don't work. (crash...)

Thanks...
