Propably it's best to compare actual code (e.g. how's displaying a
background image / moving a sprite around / playing sound effects /... done
in PPlay/ClanLib/GAMES/SDL/...) with the critical parts explained step by
step. Perhaps with an "what's also possible in this area" (e.g. setting a
vidmode not only by choosing from a list but also by giving required specs)
note then and when.
