Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2003 09:13:59 +0300 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: Patches for tests and QNX6 Here more fixes for the QNX6 in sdlqnx.diff file: - Spellchecked README.QNX (thanks to Julian Kinraid) - Fixed bugs in fullscreen mode: window region wasn't on top by default, so \ it caused some artifacts to be appeared on the screen, prevent window conten\ ts default filler in Photon while in fullscreen mode, it damages the screen. - Added support for the SDL_VIDEO_WINDOW_POS, SDL_VIDEO_CENTERED env variabl\ es. - Some minor code restructurization.
