Work is in progress (-:
Thanks to tmoran@acm.org who wrote a useful categorization:
---------------------------------------------------------------
I always have to wonder what people mean when they ask about
"doing graphics". Do they mean
o a graphic UI in the sense of Windows or Macintosh,
in which case a "graphic library" is a binding to
the Windows or Mac OS?
o Pixar type photo-realistic rendering of complex scenes?
o real-time dynamic displays as for a video game or
visualization of a physical process?
o a hardware-independent set of routines to draw
straight lines and ellipses?
---------------------------------------------------------------
For these, I am expecting further input from all of you
in order to amend
