I think the right place for that is the configuration file.
Sounds good to me. It would sort of fit with the current way of module initialization. A few months back I have added a setup() method to each module that seemed a canditate for requiring config parameters. This is called before init() and gets a reference to the configuration. So each relevant module already has access to the configuration. What remains is getting the module specific backend from it during init(). If not present, it could use the backend passed to init() directly as a fallback. In that case, using "sdl" as the default would make sense indeed. Makes the -b parameter quite useless, however (nothing to be really sad about, though).
we just need to allow the user to switch backends through a configuration menu).
No big deal once we have a window system ;-). Joel? Somewhat related to the whole topic of backends: I am wondering whether it would be possible to switch them on the fly, without restarting the application. That would be a feat! :-) Kai (making sure it's going to the list ;-)) _______________________________________________ Adonthell-devel mailing list Adonthell-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/adonthell-devel
