SDL main?
Author
I was just wondering what the arguments in the SDL main mean?, i dont ussually like using stuff i dont understand, and the main looks like this
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
I know its a small thing but i would just like to know :)
its just standart entry point for console program, you can find description of it in the MSDN, argc - number of input command line arguments, arv - arguments themselves
just check MSDN. i thought argument and parameter are synonyms. entry point is the part of the program from which it starts. console program .. well dunno how do describe it.. its just console program

Man will this ever stop!!? Whats a synonym!?, i looked it up on google, but i couldnt find anything! oh wait never mind, it a word with the same or near the same meaning of the another.

K, i got one more question, why does a SDL program need this in the main function? And why would these parameters be usefull? could someone tell me in simple words? lol, i dont have a very good vocabulary.
its not SDL. Every Windows program should have either WinMain or main functions which are entry points for executables.
