enable_triple_buffer(3alleg4)					  Allegro manual				     enable_triple_buffer(3alleg4)

NAME

       enable_triple_buffer - Enables triple buffering. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int enable_triple_buffer();

DESCRIPTION

       If  the	GFX_CAN_TRIPLE_BUFFER bit of the gfx_capabilities field is not set, you can attempt to enable it by calling this function. In par-
       ticular if you are running in mode-X in a clean DOS environment, this routine will enable the timer retrace simulator, which will  activate
       the triple buffering functions.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns zero if triple buffering is enabled, -1 otherwise.

NAME

       ex3buf - Mode-X triple buffering and retrace interrupt simulation. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       Example ex3buf

DESCRIPTION

       This  program demonstrates the use of triple buffering. Several triangles are displayed rotating and bouncing on the screen until you press
       a key. Note that on some platforms you can't get real hardware triple buffering.  The Allegro code remains the same, but  most  likely  the
       graphic driver will emulate it. Unfortunately, in these cases you can't expect the animation to be completely smooth and flicker free.
