Well, I have been attempting to get something working, but have been struggling to get the SDL compiled correctly (without SDL, there is no point in trying to get pygame working). In my investigations, I came across the SCUMM forum. Now the SCUMMVM appears to be a fully working product on various platforms including WinCE. My attempts to compile some simple test programs using the SDL source available from the official SDL site failed (mostly because the source will not compile 'as is' and needs some tweaking which is probably beyond my capabilities). However, the SCUMM forum pointed me to a set of libraries from 'knakos'. I quickly set up a new project, with my simple test program, and lo! it compiled first time and tested correctly on my WM5 device. I assume these SCUMM libraries have already been adapted to work on WinCE, and since the SCUMM idea is to get retro graphical games working, I think that pygame will probably get all the functionality it needs from them.
Now, on to getting pygame working! I will attempt to get some of the pygame source modules compiled as PYDs to see if they will import and work under PythonCE. I have not yet attempted to get a DLL compiled using these new libraries so may yet hit a wall. I will report back with any news. Rene, thanks for your comments. It's nice to know there is interest from the pygame side. If anyone else would like to provide comments/advice/code to get pygame working, it will be welcomed. Adam.
