Hi, Jared.

No, no changes. I simply compiled using the Visual files supplied in the
download. I then ran my demo sliding tile app (exactly the same script with
a single change to point to the new DLL) and it all works, but in fullscreen
only. That is why I suspect there may be some 'adjustments' made to the
knakos library, or possibly the newer SDL version has changed some of its
default behaviour.
Which version did you compile? The knakos one is 1.2.6, and my latest one is
1.2.13.

Adam.
