A simple animation package

Abstract

This paper discusses a simple animation package that animates sketches drawn by the user through a simple set of operations. The purpose of the animation package is to demonstrate various computer graphics principles to those who are not experienced in the subject. Furthermore, it is an education tool for both art and undergraduate students. An expanded set of utilities allows for journaling for playback as well as a single level undo. This provides for an easy modification or correction of the errors that can be made during any session. The system is written in C language on a Unix workstation environment. User input is handled through a menu driven system and the benefits of an event driven window environment are fully made use of [6]. This obviously simplifies the usage of the package by the merits of such an environment
