DESCRIPTION

16       This program demonstrates how to use the 32 bit RGBA translucency func‐
17       tions  to  store  an  alpha  channel  along with a bitmap graphic.  Two
18       images are loaded from disk. One will be used for  the  background  and
19       the  other  as a sprite. The example generates an alpha channel for the
20       sprite image, composing the 32 bit  RGBA  bitmap  during  runtime,  and
21       draws it at the position of the mouse cursor.
