RE: [Algorithms] PNG w/ no libs

>call me anal
being anal does not get anyone anywhere.
to get beyond where "most" are, you must be willing to stand on the
shoulders of giants :)
i often wonder why "those guys" are never in the credits of games.

people have spent countless hours on designing these classes, functions,
templates, etc.,
and i assure you that most of those guys* spend more than your "10 minutes"
in writing and desiging your code block.

*some of them even do this for a living (get paid to sit around and write
classes/functions for us to use)


peace.

isn't it ironic, in the paper "A Characterization of Ten Hidden-Surface
Algorithms", by sutherland, sproull and schumacker that we use the eleventh
algorithm ;)
makes you really think

Actually...

call me anal but what I want to do is be able to read png's with my
own code  (not use libpng or zlib)
and I all I really can't get is the decompress of the IDAT chunk
(the part zlib handles)  that explained better?
