[Pyallegro] Hello!

[AKX <th...@gm...>]

Um, hi, this is AKX (incorrectly credited as theakx -- stupid forum
software not allowing less than 6 characters), the developer of the
Pyrexian Allegro wrapper Gregorz (hope I didn't typo that) mentioned
earlier. So far, I've a fairly extensive graphics/sound/input API
available in quite an object-oriented manner ( Bitmap.blit(dest, ...),
Sound.play() etc.) and I've also combined some third-party libraries
into PyAlleg (as I call it) to provide JPEG, PNG and GIF loading.
There are also some additional capabilities, such as an event-based
API (MouseClick etc.) and a Rectangle class kinda like the one in
PyGame.

Currently I'm working on making the Alfont library compatible with
PyAlleg and equal to sdl_ttf in capabilities (bold, italic and
underline are missing from it at the moment and the size selection
routine is a bit weird, guess I'll have to mail my patch(es) to the
developer when I'm done messing with the code there).

Let's see what comes out of this!
