Convergence...

...is the term I like to use for what I'm coming up upon within the project... For me, it's that time when everything comes back together into a complete whole after you've broken down a few separate code components, simultaneously, in order to rebuild both with new (often intertwined) features.

Interestingly enough, the very next features added to the project were the ones that I previously had assumed would be afterthought additions...especially since many terminals/terminal emulators can't/don't/won't display the full range of 256 colors, etc. UTF-8 support simply ended up being simple enough that it got caught up in the midst of it all and thrown in as a "meh, why not" sort of addition.

All in all, I'm glad to say that AnsiGL is almost at another convergence point...one that will probably be significant enough for another release...I hope, within the week.
