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. :-)

.TH "SDL_PushEvent" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 22:59" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_PushEvent \- Pushes an event onto the event queue
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Event *event\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The event queue can actually be used as a two way communication channel\&. Not only can events be read from the queue, but the user can also push their own events onto it\&. \fBevent\fR is a pointer to the event structure you wish to push onto the queue\&.
.PP
.RS
\fBNote:  
.PP
Pushing device input events onto the queue doesn\&'t modify the state of the device within SDL\&.
.RE
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
Returns \fB0\fR on success or \fB-1\fR if the event couldn\&'t be pushed\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
See \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR\&.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
