==================
The aggdraw module
==================

A high-quality graphics engine for PIL, based on Maxim Shemanarev's
Anti-Grain Geometry library (from http://antigrain.com).

The necessary AGG sources are included in the aggdraw source kit.

Build instructions (all platforms)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Check prerequisites.

   You need a C++ compiler to build this extension.

   The library comes with the necessary AGG sources included.

   The following additional libraries can be used:

   OpenType/TrueType    freetype2 (2.1.10 or later is recommended)
   support              
                        http://www.freetype.org
                        http://freetype.sourceforge.net  

2. Configure.

   To enable freetype, you need to build the library somewhere, and
   then change the FREETYPE_ROOT variable in aggdraw's setup.py file
   so it points to the build location.

   If you don't want or need freetype support, you can leave the
   variable as is, or set it to None.

3. Build.

   The library uses a standard setup.py file, and you can use all
   standard setup.py commands.   I recommend the following steps:

        $ python setup.py build_ext -i
	$ python selftest.py

   (if you're lazy, you can skip the above and just install the
   library; setup.py will make sure the right stuff is built before
   it's installed).

4. Install.

   If the selftest succeeds, you can install the library:

        $ python setup.py install

5. Enjoy!
