Transforms and some of the drawing commands are working, and fill/stroke.

Drawing to a window is working
The Grammar is seperated out (just Nodebox for now), and the graphics renderer (more to do here), and bot Context.


Performance... still not great :-\ Need to find out whats happening with cairo.

I really thought that using a PDFSurface as a meta surface (as recommended from the cairo mailing list), and double buffering the Gtk window would help (+ a lot of the other stuff).


I'd recommend having a play, it works with the same commandline as sbot, so you can run any bot with it - especially if anybody can find bugs in the drawing (there are lots - I just don't know what they are yet).


I'm going to try and find out where the performance is getting eaten; it might just be due to things not drawing correctly or something.

Update: was a problem with stroke() - performance seems a lot more reasonable now.
