SDL 2.x support #18

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Greetings,

I really think we should get SDL 1.3 support in as quickly as possible. It adds 
TextInput, which is very crucial for creating portable "desktopy" apps. A whole 
class of Lisp apps will be made possible by the presence of portable graphic 
primitives with text I/O capabilities.

At the moment, one can cheat by using SDL_ttf for the output, and scrapping 
scan-codes off of keypress events. I don't need to point out how ugly this is, 
both in code aesthetics and also display.

Regards

Also it comes with GLES support, making it easier to build lispy SDL apps for 
android. WE NEED THIS!

Looks like SDL decided to skip 1.3 and jump straight to 2.0.

This is still an important issue, just not one I have time to deal with in the 
foreseeable future. Implementers welcome.
