The "Image Noise" task asks:
Generate a random black and white 320x240 image continuously, showing FPS

This is the PureBasic implementation, it's far from being nice, but it's short
and it's doesn't contain lot of magic:

I don't know if D will have a built-in GUIs kit (like Delphi or Tcl), but how much
simple&short will be a D implementation of the "Image Noise" task?
Even if D will not have a built-in GUI kit included in its standard
distribution zip, is it worth having in Phobos a basic graphics interface, so
writing simple graphics programs will be standard, regardless the usage of GTK,
WX, Aero, or other systems under it?
I'm 100% for this proposal. Not necessarily in Phobos -- but having such a tool
available for quick& easy graphical output, such as drawing a function's
curve, is definitely a great idea.
Now, the PureBasic example does this via a GUI/event loop window. It's not what
I have in mind for my use cases. Rather, I would be in favor of a simple
graphic frame that could be used like in good old times we used to draw
directly on the video -- when this was easy to do, just using x,y pixel
coordinates. Optionnally, a set of plotting/drawing routines, including vector
image primitives.
(An inspiration for this may be Logo.)
I have no idea how to implement the base graphic frame, but once it's in place,
I would certainly help in feeding the module with useful routines.

Maybe this will be helpfull!
