+<h1><a href="http://sol.gfxile.net/gp/index.html">Sol's Tutorials</a> </h1><br />
+<p>When I was struggling with SDL C a while ago, someone recommended <a href="http://sol.gfxile.net/gp/index.html">Sol's Tutorial</a> to me. It had not only help me understand video in SDL, but I believe my code has improved using Sol's code style. I would like to pass these along to fellow SDL_Perl users too. So here is the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/blob/redesign/examples/sols/ch02.pl">Ch 02</a> code of Sol's Tutorial in SDL_Perl. It will be getting more and more Perly as our team hacks on it. There is more to come!<br />
+</p><br />
+<p>To use this code you need the new Redesigned SDL_Perl Library </p><br />
+<h1>Getting SDL Dependencies </h1><br />
+Only If you are on Linux (debian/ubuntu) you need the following dependencies:<br />
<br />
-<b>SDL Perl Tutorials</b><br />
+<pre>$ sudo apt-get install libsdl-net1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsmpeg-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev </pre><br />
+On Windows we recommend using <a href="http://strawberryperl.com/">Strawberry Perl</a>. It comes with SDL-1.2.13 header files and libs included.<br />
<br />
-This past week I have been working on the sorry state of SDL Perl tutorials. Currently I am working on a <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/TetrisPL">Tetris Clone</a>. I am hoping to have it done by next Thrusday for TPM meeting. This tutorial is a mix of several tutorials I <a href="http://ezide.com/games/writing-games.html">found online</a>. Another <a href="http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.sdl.devel/2009/09/msg1446.html">Lunar Lander tutorial</a> has been submitted by Nelson Ferraz.<br />
+Both Windows and Linux needs to install Alien::SDL<br />
<br />
-If anyone has any really good tutorials for game development (regardless of language) or even request of tutorials. Send it my way I will look into them.<br />
+<pre>$ cpan Alien::SDL</pre>** Add sudo to this for Linux<br />
<br />
-<b>New SDL Perl site</b><br />
+<h1>Getting Bleeding SDL </h1><br />
+The bleeding SDL is on github. Click download on this <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tree/redesign"> site </a>.<br />
<br />
-Also we have begin work on a new site. It is still needs work. <a href="http://sdlperl.ath.cx/">New Site</a>.<br />
+Extract it and cd into the folder run <br />
+<pre>$ cpan . </pre>** The dot is needed <br />
+** in Linux you may need to do sudo<br />
<br />
-<i>--yapgh</i> <br />
+Then you can run this script by doing<br />
