If your sprites are not too big (128x128 or less), xspred can do that
quite nicely. It also -- here comes the easy part -- creates files that
are already in Allegro's *.dat format. And it's good all around.

There is a link to it on Shawn's home page
http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/ , and I think I remember that it
is on oulu as well.

Well, xspred is free, but I don't think Antoine would mind you sending
him money.
