So I've been hacking Mac OS X's "Core Graphics" as a way of learning iPhone coding (gotta sharpen those job skills), and I was wondering if there's an extension to pygame or python somewhere that implements "path" based graphics. In this model, you do stuff roughly like this: 1) Open a path in the current context (graphics device, in pygame, I guess that would be a surface) 2) Move to a starting point 3) repeatedly add lines, rectangles, arcs, and bezier curves to the path 4) Close the path (which implicitly adds a line back to the starting point) 5) Fill or stroke (or both) the path, to get graphics to appear. If I wanted to write python and use Mac OS X's core graphics, there's a bridge already built. What I want is to use my code on other platforms, specifically the OLPC. (I realize this might be an unreasonable expectation, since the OLPC has very little graphics horsepower.) I am currently totally staying away from OpenGL, since it seems like it'll take me a month to make headway into that. Maybe, however, OpenGL already has path-based stuff. Anyway, I figured I'd toss this out there, see what people think.
