Hermes library support
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If configure finds hermes library (an optimized pixel format conversion
|
||||
library) installed it will use it to do the pixel format conversion in
|
||||
the wraster library for some cases (TrueColor visuals without dithering).
|
||||
Currently the hermes routines cannot convert to an indexed destination,
|
||||
so we can't use hermes for PseudoColor, GrayScale and StaticGray visuals.
|
||||
Also hermes only does dithering for just 2 combinations of source/destination
|
||||
bits/masks none of them useful to out needs so for dithering we still
|
||||
use out routines.
|
||||
|
||||
The Hermes library is completely optional, you can build Window Maker
|
||||
without having it, it just speeds up the things a little for some
|
||||
situations.
|
||||

||||
