David Carlier implemented SDL_GetBasePath() for OpenBSD this feature is utilized by the upcoming falltergeist port I'm working on.
The change was accepted and committed upstream in: - 698a7d8626b95e3147b9ff8242d7023cb91f6a20 - https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/raw-rev/698a7d8626b9 - https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/698a7d8626b9 I prepared some trivial sample code to test the change before & after the patch: - https://gist.github.com/mulander/5c6bb3b66a5a4df4f32f Initially I wanted to implement a similar change in falltergeist until we obtain a newer SDL (there is no SDL2 version released with this change) but bentleyy@ suggested that it might be better to just backport the SDL2 patch. This patch of course should die as soon as a new upstream release hits. Feedback? Better ways to do this? OK's?
