BGI is a very primitive (not to mention slow) graphics library, and the
availability of this library is only to facilitate in porting old BC
programs (the ones that are happy drawing aliased lines in 16-color). Newer
and more powerful libs, like Allegro would make more sense. However, the
filesize would also correspondingly increased.
