Erik Heckers fixed bug #493 Searching the installed man pages for SDL functions fails, e.g. man -k SDL_ |grep Video After investigating this I found that "makewhatis", the tool that generates the "whatis" database, reads the SDL_* man pages, but doesn't produce entries in the "whatis" database for the SDL_* man pages. After some more debugging I found the reason is a missing space. After editing SDL_Init.3(.gz) and replacing SDL_Init\- Initializes SDL with SDL_Init \- Initializes SDL everything works fine. After running "makewhatis" I can successfully do a man -k SDL_ and SDL_Init is listed in the output.

.TH "SDL_Flip" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_Flip \- Swaps screen buffers
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_Flip\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *screen\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
On hardware that supports double-buffering, this function sets up a flip and returns\&. The hardware will wait for vertical retrace, and then swap video buffers before the next video surface blit or lock will return\&. On hardware that doesn\&'t support double-buffering, this is equivalent to calling \fISDL_UpdateRect\fR\fB(screen, 0, 0, 0, 0)\fR
.PP
The \fBSDL_DOUBLEBUF\fP flag must have been passed to \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR, when setting the video mode for this function to perform hardware flipping\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
This function returns \fB0\fR if successful, or \fB-1\fR if there was an error\&.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
\fI\fBSDL_SetVideoMode\fP\fR, \fI\fBSDL_UpdateRect\fP\fR, \fI\fBSDL_Surface\fR\fR
