1d5d4d44 3Providing direct memory access to SDL_Surface's pixels
ec946b6b 4</h1>
5<div class="CONTENT">
1d5d4d44 6<p>In an attempt to make pixel access easier on SDL_Surface pixels. I have started work on <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/commit/7ee1a1a7f162080a6fa5274e95b80961486e21e5">SDLx::Surface</a>. So far I have only start on the 32 bpp surfaces.</p><br />
7<p>The general idea is to make Pointer Values (PV) of each pixel in the surface and place them into a 2D matrix. First I make pointer values like this: </p><br />
