.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_MouseButtonEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN\fP or \fBSDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP\fP is reported\&.
.PP
When a mouse button press or release is detected then number of the button pressed (from 1 to 255, with 1 usually being the left button and 2 the right) is placed into \fBbutton\fR, the position of the mouse when this event occured is stored in the \fBx\fR and the \fBy\fR fields\&. Like \fI\fBSDL_KeyboardEvent\fR\fR, information on whether the event was a press or a release event is stored in both the \fBtype\fR and \fBstate\fR fields, but this should be obvious\&.

Searching the installed man pages for SDL functions fails, e.g. man -k SDL_ |grep Video After investigating this I found that "makewhatis", the tool that generates the "whatis" database, reads the SDL_* man pages, but doesn't produce entries in the "whatis" database for the SDL_* man pages. After some more debugging I found the reason is a missing space. After editing SDL_Init.3(.gz) and replacing SDL_Init\- Initializes SDL with SDL_Init \- Initializes SDL everything works fine. After running "makewhatis" I can successfully do a man -k SDL_ and SDL_Init is listed in the output. --HG-- branch : SDL-1.2 extra : convert_revision : svn%3Ac70aab31-4412-0410-b14c-859654838e24/branches/SDL-1.2%402660
