Yes, SDL_PollEvent() is pretty much the equivalent of Pending(), 
returning 0 if no events are waiting. There is a blocking version, but I 
hesitate to use it as if there are no SDL events, execution would not 
continue and Pending() wouldn't be checked until an SDL event occurred.

Yes, sorry, late-night thinking at work. I was used to the old MFC way 
of doing things with PeekMessage() etc. I got some sleep, read up a bit 
more and know just to add a handler function for what ever event I want. 
Speaking of which, I'd better start reading the custom events tutorial 
on the wiki :-)

Thanks a lot.
