As for the 2d OGL thing, it would probably be easier to just use sdl, because most people usenedl for sound and input with OGL...

Well, Focus on SDL came in today, and I am glad I got it. It is easy to understand, and the code is well written, at least it is in my opinion ;)

I used lazyfoo for a while. Just got tired of looking at the template. It needs syntax highlighting.
