Added On_Char method to Window_Listener for WM_CHAR messages. Removed a lot of TSF code because part of it was wrong and part was too complicated. Added Clear method to clear the window. IME input should work in both windowed mode and fullscreen mode with these changes. I have tested on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 Ultimate in VirtualBox. When you type a character (with an IME or not), the console will show the code point as U+XXXX. You use Left Alt+Shift (or whatever you have it set to) to switch input languages as usual. Hit ESC to exit (or close the window in windowed mode). The program will pause before exiting so you can review the console output (press a key to exit).

SDL on Sony Playstation3
------------------------

Installation:
  First, you have to install the Cell SDK
  - Download the Cell SDK installer RPM and ISO images to
    a temporary directory such as /tmp/cellsdk.
  - Mount the image: mount -o loop CellSDK-Devel-Fedora_3.1.0.0.0.iso /tmp/cellsdk
  - Install the SDK installer: rpm -ivh cell-install-3.1.0-0.0.noarch.rpm
  - Install the SDK: cd /opt/cell && ./cellsdk --iso /tmp/cellsdkiso install

  You'll than need to install the SPU-libs
  - Run make ps3-libs && make ps3libs-install

  Finally, install SDL
  - Go to SDL-1.2/ and build SDL like any other GNU style package.
  e.g.
    - Build the configure-script with ./autogen.sh
    - Configure SDL for your needs: ./configure --enable-video-ps3 ...
    - Build and install it: make && make install


Todo:
  - Mouse & Keyboard support
  - On SPU-side the current scaler and converter restrictions are:
    - resolution has to be a multiple of 8 (will work on that)
    - scaler/converter only supports the YV12 and IYUV format
    - the scaler works only bilinear (lanzos would be nice)
  - Optimize the SPU-program handling on the PPE side
  - Integrate spumedia in SDL

Have fun!
