Date: Wed, 04 Feb 2004 13:51:56 +0100 From: Jens Leuschner Subject: Small patch for libSDL In newer XFree86 releases in the German keyboard the "AltGr"-Key no longer produces the keysym "Mode_switch", instead it produces "ISO_Level3_Shift". I have created a small patch against SDL-1.2.6 (which cleanly applies to the current CVS-SDL too) that makes SDL recognize ISO_Level3_Shift as AltGR key.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_PumpEvents\- Pumps the event loop, gathering events from the input devices\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

\fBvoid \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP\fR(\fBvoid\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Pumps the event loop, gathering events from the input devices\&.
.PP
\fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP gathers all the pending input information from devices and places it on the event queue\&. Without calls to \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP no events would ever be placed on the queue\&. Often calls the need for \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP is hidden from the user since \fI\fBSDL_PollEvent\fP\fR and \fI\fBSDL_WaitEvent\fP\fR implicitly call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP\&. However, if you are not polling or waiting for events (e\&.g\&. your filtering them), then you must call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP to force an event queue update\&.

\fBNote:

You can only call this function in the thread that set the video mode\&.
