FWIW I ran a quick # cd /usr/ports; find . | xargs grep vgl Which returned quite a few entries, as well as unrelated. In case it helps. Some of the possibly notable ones include: /devel/sdl12 /korean/man-doc/pkg-plist:share/man/ko_KR.eucKR/man3/vgl.3.gz /games/digger-vgl /japanese/groff/files/mdoc.local.in:.ds str-Lb-libvgl Video Graphics Library (libvgl, \-lvgl) /misc/compat4x /misc/compat5x /misc/compat6x /misc/compat7x /x11/virtualgl There were also matches in binary files; jdk, gnome(2|3), xorg, teX, and ghostscript. But I didn't pursue it any further. --Chris > > On 27 October 2014 at 11:26, Ed Maste <ema...@freebsd.org> wrote: > > vgl(3) is a graphics library for syscons(4) that provides some basic > > graphics operations (e.g. some mode setting, bitmaps, boxes, > > ellipses).
