Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

GD integration

If the GD library is installed on your system, the following definitions are available:

[constant] g2:gd-jpeg
[constant] g2:gd-png

Part of enum GD-TYPE

[procedure] (g2:open-gd FILENAME WIDTH HEIGHT GD-TYPE)

Returns a DEVICE object.

X11 integration

If X11 is available, you can also create X11 Window devices:

[procedure] (g2:open-x11 WIDTH HEIGHT)
[procedure] (g2:open-x11x WIDTH HEIGHT X Y WINDOWNAME ICONNAME U8VECTOR ICONWIDTH ICONHEIGHT)

Both procedures return a DEVICE object.

Example

(require-extension g2 extras)

(define d (g2:open-x11 50 50))
(g2:line d 5 5 45 45)
(g2:circle d 25 25 20)

(let loop ()
  (let-values (((_ _ b) (g2:query-pointer d)))
    (when (< b 256) (loop))))

(g2:close d)

Assorted tips

On Debian and Debian-derived systems (e.g., Ubuntu), you'll need the following packages: libg2-dev and libgd2-xpm-dev
