pilib

I have two applications in my mind that I would like to develop using PILIB, one is a simple mesh generator and the other is small plotting program for large/huge data files (>1GB or 1E6 data points).

However, I would like to know which are the graphic features currently implemented in PiLIB?

I understand GTK uses Cairo, which seems to be really good for 2D graphics.

Thanks !

pilib uses the GDK functions (like gdk_draw_line) to draw into a pixmap which is connected to a GTK image widget. Have a look at the source code of the gr* functions, it is not really complicated (most of the time more or less only wrapper functions).
