[Tuxmath-devel] SDL2 support

[LM <lm...@gm...>]

Has anyone looked at adding SDL2 support to Tuxmath to use on systems
that may no longer want to maintain SDL 1.2.x?

I started looking at the Tuxmath source code to see how difficult the
task might be.  Took me a couple of days just to get Tuxmath to build
successfully.  I started with the 2.0.3 source tarball from Debian.
Tried adding the code from the accessibility branch back into that.  I
ran across some issues when trying to build --without-sdlnet and had
to work around them.  I also ran across some issues when using
SDL_ttf.  The SDL_ttf library doesn't handle newline characters.  I
wrote some code to actually draw multiple lines of text using SDL_ttf
when there were newline characters in the string.  Doesn't look like
SDL_pango has been ported to SDL2 yet, but there is a port for
SDL2_ttf.  It would be nice if SDL_ttf worked properly in Tuxmath
before trying to move to SDL2.

Was curious if there was any active development going on and any plans
for SDL2 support in the future.  What, if anything, is currently on
the Tuxmath development roadmap?  Thanks.
