[SDL] Event union...oh i get it!

[Peter]

Fellow humans,
   Ok, I think I understand.  So referencing event.type is, really, just
   a user-friendly reference to a specific place in memory.  And, because
   a union puts everything in the same memory space, refering to
   event.button.type refers to the exact same space in memory.  I have a
   copy of The C Programming Language, and now I understand why "it's the
   programmer's responsibility" to keep track of what is in a union: man,
   the power of C!!

   On a side note, I see why people get so frustrated with C at times...I
   imagine an innapropriate reference to a union member could be a
   debugging nightmare.

   Thanks soooo much for your help!!!

Peace,
