Hello.
So, I looked into GLK. As you can see from the screenshot at
http://www.dettus.net/dMagnetic/xglk_pawn.png , I made some progress.
However, pictures seem to be handled quite archaic by this.
Or at least with the libxglk frontend. Apparently, there are two ways:
1. Draw the rectangles yourself (Which is what I did. Which is
slooooooooow.)
2. Store the image as an .png or .jpeg file, load it, display it.
Personally, I would have preferred an interface where I could hand over
a memory pointer, and let the GUI figure out the best way to render it
on screen.
On top of that: The libxglk library itself is outdated.
Any hints?
Thomas
