Re: [fpc-pascal] FPC Graphics options?

Forgot to mention. SDL2.0 is multi platform and uses accelerated graphics. https://www.libsdl.org/ The best speed is achieved with NVidia graphics cards and proprietary NVidia drivers rather than the default Linux X.org drivers. http://www.freepascal-meets-sdl.net/chapter-1-introduction/ Brian

Re: [fpc-pascal] FPC Graphics options?

I have an older project (Virtual Pascal) using DPMI32 and writing to the graphics card , and had the same issue as you when deciding which graphics library to use for Linux. In my case , part of the application is GUI and part is very fast 2D pixel graphics (points lines , polygons etc.) The firs

[fpc-pascal] FPC Graphics options?

I have a few console graphics applications that I originally wrote in Turbo Pascal that I have been able to convert over to Free Pascal and now have windows versions of these programs. I notice that unless I run my program on a 3.5GHz machine or faster, the graphics are fairly slow.By slow, I
