NAME

       SDL_EnableUNICODE - Enable UNICODE translation

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL.h"

       int SDL_EnableUNICODE(int enable);

DESCRIPTION

       Enables/Disables Unicode keyboard translation.

       To  obtain  the  character  codes  corresponding  to  received  keyboard  events,  Unicode
       translation must first be turned on using this function. The translation incurs  a  slight
       overhead  for  each  keyboard  event  and  is  therefore  disabled  by  default.  For each
       subsequently received key down event, the unicode member of the SDL_keysym structure  will
       then  contain the corresponding character code, or zero for keysyms that do not correspond
       to any character code.

       A value of 1 for enable enables Unicode translation; 0  disables  it,  and  -1  leaves  it
       unchanged (useful for querying the current translation mode).

       Note that only key press events will be translated, not release events.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the previous translation mode (0 or 1).
