Graphics Stuff

I'm not a graphics programmer, but here's a couple of links to things I've found useful:

JLib This is a portable graphics library, supporting DOS, Windows and X on Unix machines (you have to compile it for your platform), and possibly more. It's fairly basic, but if you can live with a fixed (at compile time) window size - which I can, for my uses - it scores on portability.
Allegro This library was originally developed for writing games for DOS using DJGPP, but it now has Windows and X ports. It's pretty full-featured including sound and joystick capabilities.
g2 A library for producing several formats of graphics (for instance PostScript, an X window and plotter data, or combinations of them at the same time).
