heh, I'm *almost* to the point where I can replace SDL for  my 
own little games. I ported stb_truetype.h to D earlier in the 
week, I have some joystick input code and sound output code 
laying around, and once simpledisplay.d gets OpenGL context 
creation (probably tomorrow), that'll be almost everything I use 
there!

Anyway though, as I write my minigui.d, I'm finally finishing 
simpledisplay.d's input events. (Previously, I only used that 
module as a quick image display thing, and the only events I was 
really interested in was basic click and key presses, 'a', 's', 
pressed, etc. But now I'm trying to write a little Text Edit 
control, so it needs a lot more detail.)

Anyway, I'm fixing a lot of input bugs this weekend, so if you 
want to give simpledisplay.d a try next week, it might be useful 
to you then.
