11 This function takes a surface and copies it to a new surface of the pixel format and colors of the video framebuffer plus an alpha channel, suitable for fast blitting onto the display surface\&. It calls \fISDL_ConvertSurface\fR

15 This function can be used to convert a colourkey to an alpha channel, if the \fBSDL_SRCCOLORKEY\fP flag is set on the surface\&. The generated surface will then be transparent (alpha=0) where the pixels match the colourkey, and opaque (alpha=255) elsewhere\&.
