I mentioned Hiki (Human Interface Kit Interface) in Seattle. Some
others have extended draw (like fgb - anti aliasing with area coverage
- under my humble mentoring). Hiki will be ready to run when I get
back from adventure. It optionally has other convolutions - Catmull
and Sinc look much better.

Next message from India.
