***************************************************************************

Very nice, a tiny GTK+ like, library for svgalib.

This is a distribution of FastGL, the powerful 2D graphics 
library. It running on x86 machines under MS-DOS, LINUX & QNX.

-------------------------- WHAT IS IT? ------------------------------------

    - free for payment
    - ultra-super-fast
    - useful for a games and mainly to fast graphics application
    - real-time graphics
    - only 256 (8 bit packed) Colors
    - resolution from 320x200 up to 1600x1200
    - MMX support
    - very well windowing ..
    - multiplatform !!! (DJGPP, WATCOM, GCC, LINUX, QNX)
    - full application environment (config file, ...)
    - professional tested & used one year 
    - very easy to use (see you to examples)
    - object-oriented
    - and more & more
    
-------------------------- INSTALL ----------------------------------------

NOTE: to compile you must have NASM (Net wide assembler) or WASM (for Watcom) !

To install on LINUX, type : cd src
			    make -f linux.mak (you must be root!) 

To install on MS-DOS, type: cd src
			    make -f djgpp.mak 
			    
		or type:    cd src 
			    make -f watcom.mak        (for Watcom C++ & wasm.)

To install on QNX, type   : cd src 
			    make -f qnx.mak (you must be root!)
and type on console: 	    int10 &


To compile this library you can/must use these tools:
MS_DOS:	GCC & NASM (RHIDE compatible (I think "in graphics modes"))
	WATCOM C++ & WASM (WD Debugger compatible)
QNX:	WATCOM C++ & WASM
LINUX: GCC (or EGCS or PGCC) & NASM (0.97) & svgalib developer package

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 You must have nasm 0.97 (worldwide net assembler). 
 Also you must have svgalib library. (I use from one only little bit ..)
 Get it from ftp://matalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/graphics/svgalib*
 Installing it is another story on another time.
	
-------------------------- WARNING ----------------------------------------

If you use this library under LINUX as shared, don't forget to "-fPIC" compiler option
