your feedback tells me that I am working in the right direction.

There could be another way to explore, all this could be made using the 
AggPas Library instead of SDL: no .DLLs, .sos or .dev packages to 
install, only pascal units... but let's talk about that another day :-)

you can find the zip file here:

or, directly, with this direct link:
http://digilander.libero.it/tizzziano/files/sdlgraphex_080108.zip

The main program is sdlgraphex.lpr (Lazarus project) if you don't use 
the IDE you can compile it with FPC using the comman line in 
compile.bat. This requires only the SDL.dll (or SDL.so) installed in 
your system.

that's all, by now.
