Since this is a subject that is dear to me, I thought I'd ask how hard it would be to incorporate something like this into Pygame: http://cairographics.org/SDL/ I realise this probably implies a large amount of work, but I just thought I'd throw it on to the collective heads-up-display. Would be pretty wonderful to be able to use Cairo's rendering capabilities from inside Pygame! :) Best, Chris. --- http://mccormick.cx

Re: [pygame] Cairo + SDL
I'm pretty sure pycairo and pygame are already interoperable: http://www.pjblog.net/index.php?post/2006/06/23/144-using-pycairo-with-pygame-surface I think you may also be able to do something like this to do pretty much exactly what that page you linked to does: -- width = 100 height = 100 pygame_surf = pygame.Surface((width, height), 0, 32, (0xff, 0x00ff00, 0xff, 0)) data = pygame_surf.get_buffer() stride = pygame_surf.get_pitch() cairo_surf = cairo.ImageSurface.create_for_data(data, cairo.FORMAT_RGB24, width, height, stride) - ... but I haven't tested it On Sat, May 2, 2009 at 10:16 AM, Chris McCormick ch...@mccormick.cx wrote: Hi all, Recently there was some talk of doing vector graphics in Pygame.
