Basic graphics

Are there any libraries for SDL that do basic 2D graphical operations,
like lines, filled polys, circles, etc… I looked on the libsdl listing of
libraries but didn’t see any there.

A lot of libraries on the page provide basic 2d graphics drawing, but usually
as a part of something else. If your looking for something in C there is the
PowerPak and SGE. I would go for SGE. SGE is also a “side library” as
opposed to a layer library that tries to hide SDL. If you use C++ (and don;t
mind using a whole framework to talk to SDL), then there is libksd (my
library :-), libuta (a widget set), and libMgTk. There are a couple I
haven;t tried but most should include basic drawing, expecially widget sets.

I figured I would correct myself before someone else did!! SGE is not written in
C, but the API is. In other words C programs can use SGE, but it is implemented
in C++.
