Argghhhhh!!!

, I mean input device, how does your program know when you press a button, I know you explained the polling for events, I was just curious to know how you get the input.

mmsystem/winmm, e.g. joyGetPosEx() et al. The mm lib doesn't provide all the functionality of DirectInput, but we can use it on all Windows builds without becoming dependent on DirectX.

Oh good job so far.

Commited to the trunk in SVN 1687. Support for Windows and Linux, but not MacOS (anyone want to do it?)

.dsp/.vcproj/.dev files updated.

Testing would be very welcome, as would suggestions for a definitive way to identify POV inputs on Linux - POV hat(s) get read as 2 axes, with no apparent way to identify that they're POV.
