Hi all,
I'm very interested in 'antialias' and other 'cosmetic' stuff for being
good looking images; with the help of Thomas and his cartoline symbol, we
can draw lines without 'alias' (!), but the GD api (basically, the 'draw
line') is very slow.
What I'm searching to do now is to 'overload' the api for drawing lines
with another one that use, for example, a special driver for a special hardware
(like a graphic card), that implement a fast algoritm for antialias filter.
Another way is to find an algoritm that use the 'math coprocessor' for some
operations (and specify it, if it's avaible, to the compiler).
What do you think about that?
Regards,
Andrea Rogges.
