It has been generalized to be suitable for any application in +need of robust graphics engine. + +It provides facilities for loading images from files of different formats, +compressed in memory storage of images, scaling, tinting/shading, flipping +and superimposition of arbitrary number of images over each other. In +addition it allows for linear gradients drawing, and antialiased/smoothed +text drawing using both FreeType library and X Window fonts. + +Primary goals of this library are to achieve exceptional quality of images +and text, making code fast and small at the same time. Additional steps are +taken to compensate for screen colordepth limitation, and different error +diffusion algorithms are used to provide for smooth images even in low +colordepth modes. + +WWW: http://afterstep.sourceforge.net/afterimage/ |
