Subject: New test for overlays
While writting QNX Photon Overlay code I've found that the existent overlay test application is not enough, it performs too artificial tests - it always moves/resizes the overlay's viewport, but in the real life that happens very rare. So I decided to write new test (commonly base on testoverlay.c code) and called it testoverlay2 :)
moose.dat - raw 8 bit paletted data of the small movie. (It was a moose.gif, also included in the attachment as reference, but not needed for this test, it is just for information). I cannot find, who created this .gif, so no credits this time :) But over inet I saw this gif zillion times, so I think we do not infringing somebody rights :)

If the call is successful it will atomically decrement the semaphore value\&. .PP After \fBSDL_SemWait()\fP is successful, the semaphore can be released and its count atomically incremented by a successful call to \fISDL_SemPost\fR\&. .SH "RETURN VALUE" .PP Returns \fB0\fR if successful or \fB-1\fR if there was an error (leaving the semaphore unchanged)\&. .SH "EXAMPLES" .PP .PP .nf \f(CWif (SDL_SemWait(my_sem) == -1) { return WAIT_FAILED; } \&.\&.\&.
