Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2003 16:22:56 +0300 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: Package building for QNX6 I'm just completed the package description file for QNX6 - qpg, it is like a\ .spec files for Linux. Please place SDL.qpg.in file in the root of the proj\ ect, where .spec file is placed. And sdl12qpg.diff - just adding the SDL.qpg\ .in. The same for the SDL_image. I'm planning to add .qpg files creation for\ all SDL* projects. As for shared library building for QNX6. It is very hard to improve the exis\ ting libtool code to support QNX shared libraries. Much easyiest is to remov\ e libtool.m4 code from the acinclude.m4 for those persons, who building shar\ ed libraries for QNX6. I'm described all what they need to do with .so under\ QNX6 in the README.QNX file. And 90% of people used the precompiled librari\ es, so I think it is not big problem :)

>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
