Added support for OpenGL ES and UIKit Video Driver: - included SDL_renderer_gles.h - added UIKit Video driver bootstrap declaration - added property "retained_backing" to gl_config structure. Having retained backing means your video buffers can't be overwritten by other applications between drawing frames. By default, this is enabled. I wanted to give the option to disable this on iPhone because it increases performance greatly. - modified SDL_GetAttribute and SDL_SetAttribute function for OpenGL ES support. OpenGL ES does not have support for accumulation buffers, and is always double buffered, among other things.

SDL_ConvertSurface \- Converts a surface to the same format as another surface\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL/SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_Surface *\fBSDL_ConvertSurface\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *src, SDL_PixelFormat *fmt, Uint32 flags\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Creates a new surface of the specified format, and then copies and maps the given surface to it\&. If this function fails, it returns \fBNULL\fP\&.
.PP
The \fBflags\fR parameter is passed to \fI\fBSDL_CreateRGBSurface\fP\fR and has those semantics\&.
.PP
This function is used internally by \fI\fBSDL_DisplayFormat\fP\fR\&.
.PP
This function can only be called after SDL_Init\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
Returns either a pointer to the new surface, or \fBNULL\fP on error\&.
