I've made so many changes I don't dare continue until I check the current stuff in. /test/testatomic.c performs absolutely basic tests to show that the function work as expected. Need a second test to do more detailed tests. /include/SDL_atomic.h provides declarations for all included functions. /src/atomic/linux/SDL_atomic.c provided all the functions. On a generic built the 64 bit functions work, but they are emulated. On a build for -march=pentium and above the 64 bit functions use native instructions /src/atomic/dummy/SDL_atomic.c emulates all the operations using SDL_mutex.h. /src/atomic/win32/SDL_atomic.c is a copy of dummy /src/atomic/macosx/SDL_atomic.s is a copy of dummy These versions of SDL_atomic.c provide a frame work for building the library with a mixture of native and emulated functions. This allows the whole library to be provided on all platforms. (I hope.) I hope this fits with the SDL philosophy of either providing a common subset or emulating when the platform is missing a feature. I have not added dummy, macosx, or win32 to the build. They are there as place holders for future work. I have modified congifure.in to compile sources in /src/atomic/linux. (The SDL configure.in file is an amazing piece of work and I hope I didn't mess it up. :-)

>Description</H2
><P
>This function sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted 
to the event queue.  This is a very powerful and flexible feature.  The filter 
is prototyped as:
<PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>typedef int (*SDL_EventFilter)(const SDL_Event *event);</PRE
>
If the filter returns <SPAN
CLASS="RETURNVALUE"
>1</SPAN
>, then the event will be 
added to the internal queue.  If it returns <SPAN
CLASS="RETURNVALUE"
>0</SPAN
>, 
then the event will be dropped from the queue.  This allows selective
filtering of dynamically.</P
><P
>There is one caveat when dealing with the <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>SDL_QUITEVENT</TT
> event type.  The
event filter is only called when the window manager desires to close the
application window.  If the event filter returns 1, then the window will
be closed, otherwise the window will remain open if possible.
If the quit event is generated by an interrupt signal, it will bypass the
internal queue and be delivered to the application at the next event poll.</P
