annotate docs/man3/SDL_SysWMEvent.3 @ 1248:d2c6881935be

Catch X11 extension errors...since most of these are notifications that we queried for a missing extension (such as the XiG vidmode one that most people don't have), and default Xlib behaviour is to write notification to stderr, this tends to generate incorrect bug reports. Since we'll actually deal with the missing extension when querying for it, we ignore these errors in our hook. The rest continue to pass through to the default handler. Fixes Bugzilla #42. --ryan.

6 The system window manager event contains a pointer to system-specific information about unknown window manager events\&. If you enable this event using \fI\fBSDL_EventState()\fP\fR, it will be generated whenever unhandled events are received from the window manager\&. This can be used, for example, to implement cut-and-paste in your application\&.

14 If you want to obtain system-specific information about the window manager, you can fill the version member of a \fBSDL_SysWMinfo\fR structure (details can be found in \fBSDL_syswm\&.h\fP, which must be included) using the \fBSDL_VERSION()\fP macro found in \fBSDL_version\&.h\fP, and pass it to the function:
