Date: Wed, 9 Apr 2003 18:21:33 -0230 From: Stephen Anthony <stephena@roadrunner.nf.net> Subject: [SDL] First patch concerning 4.3 and refresh rates OK, here's my first draft of the patch for the above subject. A short explanation: X 4.3 introduces many more modelines than older versions. This would be fine, except it introduces many modes with the *same* resolution but different refresh rates. And SDL won't necessarily pick the one with the highest refresh rate. So this patch restores SDL to X 4.2 functionality. That is, there is only ever one refresh rate *per* resolution, and it is the highest possible. This functionality can be totally disabled by using the environment variable 'SDL_VIDEO_X11_USE_ALL_MODES' set equal to 1.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_KeyboardEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_KEYDOWN\fP or \fBSDL_KEYUP\fP is reported\&.
.PP
The \fBtype\fR and \fBstate\fR actually report the same information, they just use different values to do it! A keyboard event occurs when a key is released (\fBtype\fR=\fBSDK_KEYUP\fP or \fBstate\fR=\fBSDL_RELEASED\fP) and when a key is pressed (\fBtype\fR=\fBSDL_KEYDOWN\fP or \fBstate\fR=\fBSDL_PRESSED\fP)\&. The information on what key was pressed or released is in the \fI\fBkeysym\fR\fR structure\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
Repeating \fBSDL_KEYDOWN\fP events will occur if key repeat is enabled (see \fI\fBSDL_EnableKeyRepeat\fP\fR)\&.
