[DEMO] New screenshot & status update

[Todd Fleming]

I don't have the code with me right now so this description is a little 
rough.

I created a new SDL plugin.  It has (names are probably off) 
haveMessage(), which doesn't wait for a message, and getMessage(), which 
does wait for a message.  Both of these store the message along with a 
flag indicating whether there currently is a message stored.  They 
return true immediately if the flag is already true.  The plugin has a 
bunch of message accessor functions (getMessageType, getMessageMotionX, 
getMessageMotionY, etc.).  Finally, the plugin has a popMessage() 
function which clears the flag.

This accomplishes 2 goals:

1) I didn't want to access C structs from within Slate.

2) I didn't want the Slate code to be dependant on SDL.  I have a Win32 
plugin (far from ready) that has the same interface as the SDL one.  The 
Win32 plugin supports features that SDL is missing (double-click, enter, 
hover, leave, X1 and X2 buttons, etc.)
