Yes this is the SDL Library. There is also an FPC port of this library (version 1.2.0.0). I cannot find the home page for it though, so if you can't find it also, I'll mail it to you. Also I don't think there are any suitable tutorials (The ones provided in the FPC port aren't that great) for using SDL with FPC except for the C documentation at the libsdl website and others you may find. cheers James > > It could also be Specification and Description Language -- > http://www.sdl-forum.org/SDL/ -- but that seems less likely.
