I tried the SDL4Freepascal headers and they seem to work. Just can't see how to display text. And they don't appear to work on Macintosh. JEDI-SDL supposedly works on a "modified" version of Freepascal on a Mac.

Any Mac people out there using JEDI-SDL? Anyone have Freepascal examples?

The main problem is currently that you have to change the Darwin system unit, by renaming the "main" procedure in rtl/bsd/system.pp to "SDLMain" and then recompile the system unit. Of course, afterwards that system unit is only usable to create SDL programs.


So we have to implement a way to specify the name of the routine when compiling the program, but that means it must be moved to the main program and "generated" inside the compiler. Because it receives parameters, this is non trivial (unless I hardcode the parameter locations, but that's dirty and non-portable).
