I would like to use Pascal to generate images in high resolution and at least 24 bit color depth. There are links to a GRX library, which provides 2d graphics, but the user manual there was last updated in 2007, which suggests they are further behind than GPC. I don't find any grx library in my Debian (Lenny) list of available packages, using the search feature within aptitude. Apparently I would have to compile GRX and then somehow get it to work with Pascal. As a barely capable programmer, I do not look forward to this with glee. (BTW I am not asking for help, just making a point.) In all the discussion about the future of GPC, I am a bit surprised that no one seems to talk about graphics output. Did I miss something? I do that a lot.
How about incorporating graphics output directly in Pascal? Is there much interest in this? It seems to me that it would make Pascal more attractive. It would be "like POVray but even more powerful" as any general purpose programming language naturally would be. Thanks for your time.
