void al_run_detached_thread(void *(*proc)(void *arg), void *arg)

.SH DESCRIPTION
Runs the passed function in its own thread, with \f[CR]arg\f[R] passed
to it as only parameter.
This is similar to calling al_create_thread(3), al_start_thread(3) and
(after the thread has finished) al_destroy_thread(3) \- but you
don\[cq]t have the possibility of ever calling al_join_thread(3) on the
thread.
