Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2001 03:50:01 +0200 From: Max Horn <max@quendi.de> Subject: New patch for OS X Attached a .patch file for SDL/OSX with some nice bug fixes / enhancments. * fixes the activation issues, which also caused the window to be always drawn like an inactive. The close/minimize widgets now are animated properly, too. * the menu items are automatically adjusted to use the app name instead of just "SDL App". I did this so that we really can use one central SDLMain.nib file, w/o requiring developers to make a copy of it and adjust it. * libSDLMain now contains the proper cocoa code, not as before the carbon code. This means apps no longer have to carry a copy of SDLMain.m/SDLMain.h * revamped configure.in to properly build a Cocoa/Quartz SDL lib, not a Carbon based SDL lib

>Sound on the computer is translated from waves that you hear into a series of 
values, or samples, each representing the amplitude of the wave.  When these
samples are sent in a stream to a sound card, an approximation of the original
wave can be recreated.  The more bits used to represent the amplitude, and the
greater frequency these samples are gathered, the closer the approximated
sound is to the original, and the better the quality of sound.</P
><P
>This library supports both 8 and 16 bit signed and unsigned sound samples,
at frequencies ranging from 11025 Hz to 44100 Hz, depending on the 
underlying hardware.  If the hardware doesn't support the desired audio
format or frequency, it can be emulated if desired (See
