Hi Peter.
What do you think about sharing the pygame website with the pygame ctypes parts?
I would like to keep the project websites completely separate for the
moment. I think this for the same reasons that Phil listed. If you
want to have them on the same website I would rather start a new

You actually don't need to know a whole lot of python to get started using pygame and making simple games. The first game I made I didn't have any idea about classes and functions and it got me pretty far. I would say you need to know about lists, while loops, for loops and how to use them to loop
Ogre is dropping the SDL backend, so that's not a good long-term
solution.
I'm only trying to use pygame for input, not graphics. You still
think it isn't going to work well?

Using different gui tool kits almost never works out ok... without
lots of different kinds of trouble on different platforms.

It should be... however I haven't tested it yet, and other SDL
functions only work on some platforms.
It at least works with debian unstable xorg X11.

I'm trying to get Ogre (for graphics) and pygame (for input) to play
together (glued together with Boost::Python, if it matters). When
Ogre isn't using the SDL backend, pygame doesn't get any keyboard/
mouse events.
I've tried two solutions, and had problems with both:
1) Pygame using Og

That is very useful, yes! Is this supported on all platforms?

Those attributes are now in the display.Info() object.
Pretty handy, since you can check the desktop size now.

Hi,
yes, for windows and mac .11 is going to be used. However I might
change the default video driver from windows gdi to directx as it has
been until the .10 and .11 releases of SDL. Since that changes input
behaviour, as well it is a big loss in performance.

I noticed that pygame does not surface a couple of relatively recent SDL
video API enhancements that are very useful when you're trying to
respect the user's existing video settings.

Here is the story, hopefully I can make it short. So I wanted to pick up a language in general, I tried, perl, then C and didnt click with any of those. So later I tried python and it was descent, I was clicking with it. Later I became interested in web dev and saw how python does web sites and I d
Let me attempt to clear some pypy things up. PLEASE NOTE, PyPy is a
fast moving target, and by that I mean every three months they invent
a new paradigm for programming in python.
At the moment, you can write in RPython, a subset of python which
looks more like pyrex without the type-declarations
sounds very promising!
...will the pypy-translator only be useable for the pypy source? will something like pyrex or shedskin emerge from it as a side effect? or will python on pypy-c be as fast as the kind of code pyrex or shedskin can produce anyway? :)
so far rpython just seems to be a set
(The thread has blossomed. I think I'm all caught up on reading.)
The Pygame on ctypes project has gotten me more excited about Pygame
than anything. Alex has done an amazing job not only at getting this put
together, but exploring various avenues of development that did and
didn't work out.

Their goal is to get it to run fast. The 'faster-than-c' bit is sort of a
half-joking goal. C is often
I have written up a fairly comprehensive menu system that will port easily, contains highlighting, icons and keyboard detection. It also has the advantage that it does not need to tie up your event queue, is pretty easy to set up your own menu, and is written in standard Python+Pygame.
