Does SDL allow me to use both it’s 2D capabilities and OpenGL at the same
time? Can I use SDL to display a 2D background and objects, while using
OpenGL to display 3D characters between the 2D background and foreground
layers? If not, how would I do this using other means?
Thanx ahead of time!

the time I didn’t know enough OpenGL and Kenton was too busy and got
distracted by other things, plus the Loki folks used their GL implementation
code instead.I might tack this onto my ever expanding SDL todo list, if there’s enough
demand. Ai… I start working on one thing and everything piles up. In the
mean time, just start allocating and dumping textured quads, probably as a
display list.Thanx ahead of time!
