11 Return a pointer to an array of available screen dimensions for the given format and video flags, sorted largest to smallest\&. Returns \fBNULL\fP if there are no dimensions available for a particular format, or \fB-1\fR if any dimension is okay for the given format\&.

13 If \fBformat\fR is \fBNULL\fP, the mode list will be for the format returned by \fISDL_GetVideoInfo()\fR->\fBvfmt\fR\&. The \fBflag\fR parameter is an OR\&'d combination of \fIsurface\fR flags\&. The flags are the same as those used \fI\fBSDL_SetVideoMode\fP\fR and they play a strong role in deciding what modes are valid\&. For instance, if you pass \fBSDL_HWSURFACE\fP as a flag only modes that support hardware video surfaces will be returned\&.
