I can't get SDL to make any rectangles on my Mac. The program I wrote worked completely fine on a Windows computer, but whenever I call the SDL_FillRect function on my Mac, nothing appears on the screen. I suspect this may be caused by a compilation issue. I tried to install SDL Unix-style using Homebrew. Inserted below is what I write into the terminal and my code.
