-<div style="text-align: right;"><i>Silent but active,<br />Small but deadly. <br /></i><br /></div><br /><br /><h3>Updates</h3>Ok so my blog posts have gone down a bit due to me using my fingers for coding. We have started to get some updates to SDL docs so that good. Also some of the tutorials are shaping up. This is what I have been hacking this past week.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NnqjAQEn1Xo/SrmNTm9UkKI/AAAAAAAAAA0/S0XNvXsp9u4/s1600-h/tetris.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NnqjAQEn1Xo/SrmNTm9UkKI/AAAAAAAAAA0/S0XNvXsp9u4/s320/tetris.jpg" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br />You can grab the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/TetrisPL">code</a>. Note you will have to install deps yourself. Read the README file. It is not a tutorial yet, because it was hacked together in ~50 hours. But it playable now. During building this I found out that MacOSX (and Snow Leopard) has died again.<br /><br /><h3>Hackfest</h3>So with dngor's help this sunday (27/09/09) we will have a hackfest to fix MacOSX support. Anyone with a MacOSX and wants to help is welcome on <a href="http://widget.mibbit.com/?settings=89f140215d60860684cee2f6a917607f&server=irc.perl.org&channel=%23sdl">#sdl irc.perl.org</a>. We will also try to fix up a lot of docs and the tutorial for a early next week release. Also if we can we will migrate to the new site.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-7382145297295717151?l=yapgh.blogspot.com'/></div></div></div>

+So I was planning staying silent until an exam I had was done. But new developers on IRC (j_king, felix and ruoso) pull me back in. Which is a good thing ... I suppose ... because we finally have threaded callbacks for timer and audiospec to work. ruoso++ for this major contribution. If you remember this was the <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1791114/creating-threaded-callbacks-in-xs">problem</a> we were having. <br />
+<br />
+The new callbacks capability in audiospec allow you to procedurally generate sound now. If you would like a simple example take a look at <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/redesign/t/core_audiospec.t"> t/core_audiospec.t</a>. However a more fun example may be ruoso++'s <a href="http://github.com/ruoso/tecla">tecla</a> (a game for toddlers). Myself and Garu think it is a work of art but that is only because we are toddlers. <br />
+<br />
+On a side note some tickets on RT have also received some love ( after 3 or 4 years ... but nonetheless). TonyC++ sorry for the long time in response. <br />
+<br />

+Also a shout out to FROGGS for his new SON!!!. Congrats buddy!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-6642671796628033537?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
