Probably FFI is the easier path. Its how Pharo uses SDL2. There is an incomplete tutorial here... http://blog.openinworld.com/2016/09/pharo-libclang-ffi-part-1-preamble/ btw, I just noticed the "UniffiedFFI chapter" link from that post has broke. I guess the doc has moved here... https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/Booklet-uFFI but I can't find a PDF there. cheers -ben
