[comp.graphics] anti-alising

alibaba@ucscb.UCSC.EDU (73539000) (02/08/88)

Howdy-- I am looking for ANY code that performs ANY sort
of anti-aliasing. I am writing an article for a Macintosh
newsletter called, "The Active Window", a publication of
the Boston Computer Society.

The article will be called "From BitBlt to Color QuickDraw
and Beyond." I need to contact as many of the old Xerox PARC
development people that I can, as I cannot find much info
on the development of BitBlt. If anybody can stir up somebody
such as Dan Ingalls, or the like, direct them my way, please.

I also need to look at the future of QuickDraw, and need some
help understanding the basic anti-aliasing algorithms, and the
only info I can find is vague.

If you know of or do any research in this area, particularly
using a graphics based machine (SUN, Mac, Atari, Amiga, etc.)
any can helpl, please contact me.
