[SDL] Documentation, was Re: microphone support

[Chris Dobbs]

Hi,
I am trying to get in touch with Tyler Montbriand who I believe supplied the patch (see previous email below) to allow SDL to access the microphone.
I have just finished implementing his patch using SDL12- it works great on linux but I really need to cross-compile to run under (yuk)win32 - really want ot know if he has started anything that I could use as I am considering looking at adding this myself if not  - The project I am working on is a cross-platform VoIP API and I really want to use SDL as it cut's down on huge amounts of nasty win32 directx sound #ifdef's.
Any help is appreciated,
-Chris

All,
Found the post below in SDL mailinglist, can anyone tell me what the state of play is regarding the audio in patch?
I have tested patch#10 successfully and seems to work quite well - althought can't get it to accept mono.
Need to make it work under win32 too, is this supported?
Regards,
-Chris Dobbs

Even Sam gets bitten by the lack of documentation. Not to mention that
two people have now written this code. One of them may have wasted a lot
of time doing something that had already been done. He could have spent
his time making the existing code better or fixing a different problem
with SDL.

Code is not complete until it is documented and ADVERTISED. People have
to be able to find out is exists and find out how to use it.
