+ * Official documentation for SDL configuration variables
+ *
+ * This file contains functions to set and get configuration hints,

+ *
+ * The convention for naming hints is SDL_HINT_X, where "SDL_X" is
+ * the environment variable that can be used to override the default.
+ *
+ * In general these hints are just that - they may or may not be
+ * supported or applicable on any given platform, but they provide
+ * a way for an application or user to give the library a hint as
+ * to how they would like the library to work.
