Re: [pygame] When is pygame 1.8 coming out?

Well, ctypes isn't as hard as I had feared. I've got an example running 
that blits some simple boxes and pictures to the screen. I must admit, 
getting it going did make use of my knowledge of the C programming 
language, tho.

I couldn't use pygame ctypes, because most of the examples were broken, 
and I just didn't want to figure out why. Instead, I wrote a module to 
interface to SDL directly, using the ctypes feature of Python 2.5. I was 
happily surprised to discover that SDL was just a single DLL!

I'm looking forward to getting into it more, and eliminating the 
installation intricacies and dependency on Pygame. If anyone's 
interested, I can post the example I've made when I get back home tonight.
