Dear John & sage-devel, I looked into libtachyon on Sage a while ago. Right now, we don't build the library because tachyon already isn't that easy to build without manual intervention. Sage only drives tachyon through temporary files at the moment. Clearly, that is not ideal. My wishlist would be
1) Use autotools/libtools to build a shared libtachyon in a portable manner. 2) I know that there is a way to render into a memory buffer, but I haven't understood it 100%. I'm not sure if building it currently needs OpenGL headers; If possible, we would like to avoid that dependency. 3) Documentation would be nice ;-) For example we haven't quite been able to figure out the aperture option, see http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9855 Best wishes, Volker -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
