If you're on a standard linux distrobution, just
type "man svgalib" at the console. It tells how
to link into the library and what functions do
what.

Subject: Cross/Multi-platform Graphics

The project I mentioned a few days ago, of
converting a QBASIC
program to Euphoria, and needing support for
QBASIC-equivalent
graphics, has been met with great enthusiasm in
the user
community.  I now have several volunteers who are
willing to sit
down and learn Euphoria to assist in the port -
and I may be able
to convince them to join this list.  However,
we're still stuck
on one key item - duplicating 'console graphics'
(i.e., like
those supported in the DOS version of Euphoria)
for Linux.  Can
_anyone_ point me to information that I can use
so that our
porting party can _write_ this support?  If we
can get the basic
info, once we've written the support, it gets
donated to the
Euphoria library - guaranteed.

N.B. - DragonLinux appears not to be an
implementation that the
Linux version of Euphoria can run on - when I
attempted to do so,
I got a message about some libraries not being
found; apparently,
DragonLinux is not (yet) a libc6 Linux.  I'll be
trying LoopLinux
in the not-too-distant future...
