gl_swtriangle(3)	       Svgalib User Manual		gl_swtriangle(3)

NAME
     gl_swtriangle - draw a solid pixmap mapped on a triangle

SYNOPSIS
     #include <triangle.h>

     typedef struct {
	 unsigned char *bitmap1;
	 unsigned char *bitmap2;
	 int bf;
     } TD_tridata;

     void  gl_swtriangle(int  x0, int y0, int xd0, int yd0 , int x1, int y1, int
     xd1, int yd1 , int x2, int y2, int xd2, int yd2, int c, TD_tridata *tri);

DESCRIPTION
     Draws a triangle at points 0, 1, 2 by mapping the pixmaps	defined  in  the
     TD_triangle structure into the triangle.

     The  xd  and yd values represent the triangle on the bitmap and the x and y
     values represent the triangle on the screen.

     bitmap1 defines the back side of the triangle, bitmap2 the front.

     The bf value is used to tell the routine to draw the backside if it is fac-
     ing the other way.  bf tells which way the triangle  should  be  facing  to
     show the front, since you will more than likely require both combinations.

     bf = 2 defines the back to be drawn when the points are arranged clockwise,
     bf  =  3  defines the back to be drawn when the points are arranged counter
     clockwise, bf = -1 will probably always draw the front.

     Beware, these functions are not a direct part of the svgalib library.   In-
     stead  their  source  is part of svgalib and can be found in the threeDkit/
     subdirectory of the original svgalib distribution. However, it is	not  in-
     stalled  in the system by default, s.t. it is unclear where you can find it
     if your svgalib was installed by some linux distribution.

     In case of any such problem, simply get an svgalib  distribution  from  the
     net. Yo don't need to install it. Just make in the threeDkit/ subdirectory.
     As  of this writing, svgalib-1.2.12.tar.gz is the latest version and can be
     retrieved by  ftp	from  sunsite.unc.edu  at  /pub/Linux/libs/graphics  and
     tsx-11.mit.edu  at /pub/linux/sources/libs which will most probably be mir-
     rored by a site close to you.

     The functions are defined in the tri.o and triangl.o files (or their  resp.
     sources) which you must link to your program.
