Lewis, and others on project-
I think we should reconsider what graphics library we should use. Neil =
is great, and I agree with that, but is a pain in the butt to make it go =
fast. When drawing big images, using the #RRGGBB format, it has to =
convert it to a sequence of {byte1,byte2}. I'm gonna try to take Pete =
Eberlein's svgalib library and see if I can make like a =
RRGGBB_to_16bit() type of functions, and have colors with values like =
{67,146}, instead of something like 53967266. Whether or not we use it =
in the game, I'm gonna do it for myself anyway, or if you think its a =
good idea, let me know. It will be a lot like Neil, but hopefully =
faster.
