New format

Okay, I have been considering the format of these tutorials. I am finding that it is hard to read them. What I am going to do is post general information about the tutorials here so if you are interested you can click a link to go to the full tutorial. They will be posted on my website, hopefully in a format that is easier to read. I will also post a link to the project that you can download if all you want is the code. The projects that I will be posting will contain comments from now on to explain what is going on.

Today I am writing a tutorial about going full screen in DirectX. There are a few differences between windowed and full screen mode. You can't just set the Windowed property to false and expect your program to work in full screen mode. There is a little work that needs to be done before you can run in full screen. One important thing that you need to do is have a way to exit the program. This will be accomplished by using the KeyDown event handler. It will check to see if the Escape key has been pressed and then exit the program.

The code is finished and has been tested. I just have to write the tutorial. Check back a little later and I will post the link to the project when it has been uploaded to my website.
