Compilation and installation process is similar to unix one:

$@configure
$@build
$@libsdl$startup

Compilation process provides static and shared libraries of libSDL.
Content of libsdl$startup.com may be included into startup.com command file to get libsdl ready just after booting/logging.
Example of using library is:

$CC/INCL=SDL PROG.C
$LINK/THREAD=UP PROG,LIBSDL:LIBSDL$SHR/OPT   ! for shared library
    or
$LINK/THREAD=UP PROG,LIBSDL:LIBSDL/OPT       ! for static library

Sound via OpenVMS multimedia (MMOV) is supported. No Joystick support. Only SCSI CDROM is supported. IDE CDROM support will be in the future version.
OpenGL for Alpha Radeon 7500 videocard is supported, Other OpenGL card such as PowerStorm 3xx will be supported later.
Some notices for compiling OpenGL tests in [.TESTS] directory:
DEF GL SYS$COMMON:[DECW$INCLUDE.GL_1_2]
CC/INCL=SDL/DEF=HAVE_OPENGL TESTGL
LINK/THREAD=UP TESTGL,LIBSDL:LIBSDL/OPT
