I was wondering if anyone has tried using SDL (http://www.libsdl.org) with
DMC? Any success, fixes, comments?

Hi, I once played around with TinyPTC and got it to work with DMC and DMD. Same with SDL for DMD. Can't remember for DMC but I don' see why there should be big problems. -- Robert M. Münch IT & Management Freelancer http://www.robertmuench.de

I've been successfull in compiling an SDL program with DMC on a Win32
platform the other day, you need to do a couple of things though:

When compiling for Win32:
1) for sdl.lib you can simply use the sdl.lib for Borland distributed with
the SDL developer library, you could of couse always make your own.
2) for sdl_main.lib you need to make your own version with DMC, you'll need
to do a little bit of make file modifying.
3) Then when linking you need to include the /ENTRY:_WinMain 16 switch for
the linker. That because of the fact that the entry point is in the library
sdl_main and OPTLINK only looks for entry points in the object files and not
in the libraries.
