[MiNT] Half-ugly fullscreen applications, how to recover when things go bump
Hi,
I'm working on a framebuffer library, which does some ugly stuff to be
able to run stuff in fullscreen, and to be able to read multiple keys
at once.
At the moment I can't see any clean way to do that stuff,
unfortunately. The biggest problem with this is that when something
goes wrong, i.e. if the app crashes, I need to restore the desktop
screen and keyboard/mouse/joystick vectors.
Is there a nice way to do this? Maybe it's obvious and fundamental
unix knowledge, but let's say I get a bus error, is there a way to
implement some kind of "panic" recovery?
best regards
