Question: Why you abandon libsvg from WDL?

    False starts on things, I guess. SVG rendering has such variation between renderers, it is unfortunate.

    Coffee. Or cocktails. Beer and wine tend to cause issues, though on a hot day nothing quite beats a cold cheap beer.

Question: Justin Audio, the audio codec you briefly worked on around 2000ish.
Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on March 5 2011, 12:34pm
Reply on March 5 2011, 2:21pm:
    Hmm, there was a codec called something else, but it sounded awful and was very slow. It tried to find spectral patterns over time and correlate them. It did it poorly.

    Not really, unfortunately.. also sometimes we do make additions/changes to WDL_VWnd's interface, so that might be scary.

Question: Could you explain how one utilizes inline assembly? An example of creating a variable in C then using it in asm registers, etc.
Asked by Will (68.224.131.x) on February 20 2011, 8:28pm
Reply on February 20 2011, 8:42pm:
    This varies depending on compiler and architecture -- VC on x64 doesn't support inline assembly, sadly. I'll give the easiest example, which would be on VC/x86:
    int x = 0x1000;
    __asm {
      mov eax, x
      ror eax, 16
      mov x, eax
    }
    printf("%x\n",x);
    
    Very straightforward, if you know assembly (load x into eax, roll right eax 16 bits, store back to x).
