Hi,
I discovered Previous this week-end after discussing about a NeXT workstation someone brought to a local retro event (
http://www.triplea.fr/microalchimie/).
I tried to build the latest branch (branch_realtime) but it failed to display anything in the window...
I ended up git bisecting the repo until 4am, and found it worked on r585, next dozen revs failed to build, while the next revision that actually compiled had a broken display.
The culprit is SDL_CreateRenderer() is now being called from a different thread than the one that actually calls SDL_RenderPresent().
It seems that those should actually only be called from the main thread anyway, but at least it works this way.

Hello!
Thank you for the patch. I extended it to the NeXTdimension repaint thread and applied it to the repository. Please test the latest revision (r642) or branch_realtime. It would be interesting for me, if the NeXTdimension screen also repaints correctly now.
Regards,
Andreas
I activated it in the settings, and got the ND indicator on the status bar, and color display worked just fine, so I suppose it works as well :-)
