  Revision 1.18  2007/06/01 11:16:33  savage
  Added IFDEF UNIX for Workaround.

  Revision 1.17  2007/06/01 08:38:21  savage
  Added TTF_RenderText_Solid workaround as suggested by Michalis Kamburelis

  Revision 1.16  2007/05/29 21:32:14  savage
  Changes as suggested by Almindor for 64bit compatibility.

  Revision 1.15  2007/05/20 20:32:45  savage
  Initial Changes to Handle 64 Bits

  Revision 1.14  2006/12/02 00:19:01  savage
  Updated to latest version

  Revision 1.13  2005/04/10 11:48:33  savage
  Changes as suggested by Michalis, thanks.

  Revision 1.12  2005/01/05 01:47:14  savage
  Changed LibName to reflect what MacOS X should have. ie libSDL*-1.2.0.dylib respectively.

  Revision 1.11  2005/01/04 23:14:57  savage
  Changed LibName to reflect what most Linux distros will have. ie libSDL*-1.2.so.0 respectively.

  Revision 1.10  2005/01/02 19:07:32  savage
  Slight bug fix to use LongInt instead of Long ( Thanks Michalis Kamburelis )

  Revision 1.9  2005/01/01 02:15:20  savage
  Updated to v2.0.7

  Revision 1.8  2004/10/07 21:02:32  savage
  Fix for FPC

  Revision 1.7  2004/09/30 22:39:50  savage
  Added a true type font class which contains a wrap text function.
  Changed the sdl_ttf.pas header to reflect the future of jedi-sdl.

  Revision 1.6  2004/08/14 22:54:30  savage
  Updated so that Library name defines are correctly defined for MacOS X.

  Revision 1.5  2004/05/10 14:10:04  savage
  Initial MacOS X support. Fixed defines for MACOS ( Classic ) and DARWIN ( MacOS X ).

  Revision 1.4  2004/04/13 09:32:08  savage
  Changed Shared object names back to just the .so extension to avoid conflicts on various Linux/Unix distros. Therefore developers will need to create Symbolic links to the actual Share Objects if necessary.

  Revision 1.3  2004/04/01 20:53:24  savage
  Changed Linux Shared Object names so they reflect the Symbolic Links that are created when installing the RPMs from the SDL site.

  Revision 1.2  2004/03/30 20:23:28  savage
  Tidied up use of UNIX compiler directive.

  Revision 1.1  2004/02/16 22:16:40  savage
  v1.0 changes
