How to create some? svgalib does not have any format for bitmap (whether in files or memory). If you are using vgagl, you can use gl_putbox, and the format is defined in the man page. If you do not use vgagl, you have to write the functions to draw the bitmap, so you have to decide what format to use. -- Matan Ziv-Av. matan@svgalib.org
