3 ANNOUNCEMENTS in one
Emmanuel Frecon
Time for a new batch of small libraries that could be handy to some of
you:
The zshader library is a utility library that will allow to shade
(fade) away items on a Zinc canvas. The shading effect is
attained through a stepwise modification of the alpha value of
groups, which makes this library Zinc specific.
The zlineedit library provides facilities for the interactive
edition of polylines on a Zinc canvas. The library provides
facilities for both the creation of polylines and for the amending of
created polylines. When all operations are allowed, the library
will arrange for users to move, remove and add vertices and to move
lines by clicking and dragging with the mouse.
The updater is a library that aims at facilitating the auto-update of
software over the Internet. It will poll on demand or
regularly a location and will download any newer version posted to
that location to a local file. Newer versions are detected through
MD5 digests, which values are posted along the Internet location.
These are available from my code page:

about the libraries and for downloading instructions.
