pygame 2 has a lot of new things.

But we need to tell people about all the new goodies.

We need:

• small paragraphs of text explaining exciting features.
• tweet sized texts explaining new stuff
• benchmarks
• mini examples of how to use the new stuff

How to find what's new anyway?

• have a look at closed pull requests
• have a look at the SDL2 what's new annoucements
• ask people

When running the game in windowed mode there is no frame, which means the game cannot be moved around the screen easily.

Describe the solution you'd like
Window frame added when in Window mode. Mouse behaviour as below:
When 'in game' the mouse should be 'captured' from the OS, but when you're on the Menu screen after pre

This idea is about how there should be a configurable script that can be edited by the level designer (like the init-script for sectors) and activates when the player leaves the level (Presses "Abort Level"). I am aware this already exists in the worldmap editor, but if there was a version that could affect saved variables in the levels that would be great.

From the comment in SDL_filesystem.h:
Please call SDL_free() on the pointer when you are done with it

The culprit appears to be the code in m_config.c that does free(prefdir) as changing these to SDL_free(prefdir) resolved the issue.

I'm not sure what to do about `GetDefaultConfi

Standard mode has the usual keystrokes for notepad, but there are more that would probably be useful.

Describe the solution you'd like
As a first step, a quick review of the common keystrokes in notepad/wordpad/work, for example might throw up some obvious ones we could add

Replace texts of tutorial hints, currently inlined in the code that reports particular events to the player, with constructors of an enumeration datatype to be created for this purpose (and calls to a function that turns the constructors to text, adds a message, etc.). Create a lore menu that lists all tutorial hints and shows which have already been seen in this game.

Extended scope: also keep
