Alright, I have played around with it a little more.

It has the ability to work with SDL. It also has a partial native cocoa interface.

According to the docs, the cocoa interface is not complete, "see mailing list archive for details".

Linking with SDL prevents the sound error, but makes the graphics update much slower.

Now I've done some more playing around. And a big update. First: Cocoa mode is faster for text display. Dos mode text is nice, fast, crisp, and pleasant. Graphics mode, however, is different. Tested with XCom (with the 1.4 patch, and xcomutil). Text mode is slow. But graphics are fast under sdl, and horrendously slow under cocoa. For game playing, the faster graphics makes the sdl version much, much nicer. For text work, the cocoa version is better. (But other than testing and preliminary checking, who uses text mode in dos?) The bottom line: SDL displays graphics faster, avoid sound errors, and seems to have fewer bugs / is more complete. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29942#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
