Description
-----------
! Cairo provides anti-aliased vector-based rendering for X. Paths consist
! of line segments and cubic splines and can be rendered at any width
! with various join and cap styles. All colors may be specified with
! optional translucence (opacity/alpha) and combined using the extended
! Porter/Duff compositing algebra as found in the X Render Extension.
! Cairo exports a stateful rendering API similar in spirit to the path
! construction, text, and painting operators of PostScript, (with the
! significant addition of translucence in the imaging model). When
! complete, the API is intended to support the complete imaging model of
! PDF 1.4.
! Cairo relies on the Xc library for backend rendering. Xc provides an
! abstract interface for rendering to multiple target types. As of this
! writing, Xc allows Cairo to target X drawables as well as generic image
! buffers. Future backends such as PostScript, PDF, and perhaps OpenGL
! are currently being planned.

Description
-----------
! Cairo is a vector graphics library with cross-device output
! support. Currently supported output targets include the X Window
! System and in-memory image buffers. PostScript and PDF file output is
! planned. Cairo is designed to produce identical output on all output
! media while taking advantage of display hardware acceleration when
! available (eg. through the X Render Extension).
! Cairo provides a stateful user-level API with capabilities similar to
! the PDF 1.4 imaging model. Cairo provides operations including
! stroking and filling Bezier cubic splines, transforming and
! compositing translucent images, and antialiased text rendering.
! Cairo was once named Xr, (or Xr/Xc), so if you came looking for that
! software, you've found it.

file. We'll be correcting that shortly.
! In the meantime, the xrtest module in CVS provides a few example
! programs using Cairo. These may be helpful to a programmer just beginning
! with Cairo. Also, familiarity with the PostScript imaging model will
! help in understanding Cairo.
