I for one find this post interesting. Thank you Mr. Swiss

really nice! when i get time i can speed it up :)

[edit] i tried. over the long haul, what you've got is hard to beat

albert you are on the right track. i've been thinking about writing a compression routine for the longest time. Frequency analysis is one of two major concepts i have in mind. The other is the invention of a new numbering system (like roman numerals vs decimal)

In addition to being nice source material for people who don't know how to do this on their own, this "cute" project is quite useful, although I already have an easy way to scale pixels in my own projects. Will I switch? Don't know yet

hahaha .. that's great. It's interesting what people build once they have the tools.

[edit] I thought your previous demo looked a bit "off" but now I understand

I didn't realise that anti aliasing actually is not too easy. hahaha .. I can briefly describe my algo. It's "thickline," so to avoid too many if - else blocks I have a set of "virtual" x / y var sets (pitch included for both). If line width is greater than length, I reorient th...

this here demo inspired me to write a thickline aa

There are many versions of mine. I'm hard-pressed to recommend any b/c I'm not sure which is most up-to-date.

nice-looking demo dodicat. paul's crashes

'thicc' aa and such short code. took me 10 years and 6-7 attempts to get working. and my code is huge. but the results are also perfect except where x0=x1,y0=y1,or endcap < 0 and len <= 0, an issue i never got around to ironing out. why not make the endpoints single? [edit:] well i know why: 'aa' is...

var knows what to do with it :P

nice catch, dodicat :-) now you're reminding me of myself :P

nice work. the movement looks organic

really think i found a bug this time type foo as integer q declare property length as integer end type property foo.length as Integer return q end property operator -(l as foo, r as foo) as foo return type(l.q-r.q) end operator type bar as integer a declare property some_int(in as integer) end type ...

most of the stuff I care about is < 20K in source code.

Media I have on an external USB. Recently bought 4 flash drives on the cheap - mostly for trying different OS's. Probably going to grab another.

well thanks guys. ima keep pushing till i get this thing done then i'll .pp it out

[edit] nice example there Mr. doe. It took me some time away from the screen and then a re-visit .. the code is short enough .. to grok what you were showcasing
