Description Tiago O. 2014-05-16 00:54:08 UTC 
The file could be either system wide or user specific. Of course, a program could override those settings by calling SDL_SetHint or SDL_SetHintWithPriority.
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2014-06-25 09:04:40 UTC 
Most of the hints are application specific and often none are needed. It's easy for an application to implement this functionality if they want, so I'd leave this out of the API.
