The code has been converted +to ANSI C, extensively rearranged and commented, and somewhat extended. +(In particular, by adding support for multicolored dashing.) + +The core API includes functions for creating, manipulating, and destroying +miPaintSet objects. It also includes functions for creating, manipulating, +and destroying miCanvas objects. The function miCopyPaintedSetToCanvas() +moves the points in a miPaintedSet to the next stage of the graphics +pipeline: it merges them onto a miCanvas. There is support in this second +stage for sophisticated pixel-merging algorithms. |
