Why my SDL haven't the functions and events about text input?

my SDL haven’t functions and events about text input. such as :
SDL_TextInputEvent, SDL_TextEditingEvent , SDL_StartTextInput,
SDL_StopTextInput, SDL_SetTextInputRect. but we can find their document at
www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_API. are they really exsit ? if exsit,
how can i find it ?
my SDL’s version is SDL-1.2.14-4.fc13.i686.

These APIs are added in SDL 1.3, so you’re going to need SDL from the
hg repo to use them.

They are also currently only implemented for Mac OS X. We have a
student working on Windows implementation, but if anyone has insight
or code they’d like to share to help out, it would be appreciated!On Sun, Jun 20, 2010 at 8:59 PM, Jjgod Jiang wrote:
