Hiya,
Here are some general questions on X11. All I have access to
is documentation in X10.
1) Does X11 have primitive calls for 3D graphics ?
2) Have any calls for 2D been added or deleted ?
3) Can the machine dependant functions that need to be written
take advantage of both raster driven and display list driven
machines ?
4) Do you know of any implementations of the underlying code for
display list machines ?
5) Can underlying functions take advantage of specialized hardware
in the machine (specifically graphics) ?
6) If there are no 3D primitives, does anyone know of implementations ?
Pleasae email your answers to me if possible (address below). If
there is sufficient interest I will post a summary.
Thanx in Advance
Maurice Sharp
