Actually, if you look on my web page at:

 http://www.lwithers.demon.co.uk/prog/allegro/more_gui/

you will find More GUI, a little add-on for Allegro which provides a few
new GUI procs, etc.

One of the things it provides is a word-wrapping d_text_proc, and from
that it derives alert_fmt() and alert_fmt3(); these are similar to
alert() and alert3() except that you use a printf()-style formatting
string and your dialog's text will automatically be word-wrapped.

Bye for now,
