Maybe. I'd like to avoid doing this work myself. Sorry, I'm just short

The idea of libegg is that you copy the files into your own project, and
keep copying them when they are improved in libegg. libegg is never

Remember, we based it on your tool palette because it seemed like the
most sane one, which was already fairly generically coded.
