After some late night hacking I finally came up with Alias's <a href="http://use.perl.org/%7EAlias/journal/39476">suggestion</a> to have Alien::SDL. All thanks to Alias's generous access to his <a href="http://use.perl.org/%7EAlias/journal/39318">windows farm</a>, I was able to make a easier module to install SDL deps on windows. Future plans are in place to get sources and compile them for other platform.Hopefully a SDL perl release will be out soon to use Alien::SDL now.<br /><br /><br />The above script is in test/testsprite.pl. <br /><br />Until then you can do:<br /><blockquote><br />in cpan<br />cpan><b> install File::Fetch</b><br />cpan> <b>install Archive::Extract</b><br />cpan> <b>install Alien::SDL</b><br /><br />and in cmd <br /><b>pip http://cloud.github.com/downloads/kthakore/SDL_perl/SDL_Perl-v2.2.2.tar.gz</b></blockquote><br /><br />Please post any feedback here.<br /><br />Enjoy,<br /><i>yapgh</i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-8996898299982319327?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></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>
