Hello, Karl

> But if you are useing round caps and joins,
I did some benchmarking with cairo lines drawing, and round caps
drawing has the least perfomance, so I choose CAIRO_LINE_CAP_SQUARE,
as line dives enough into arrow, as you can see at
http://tinypic.com/r/t9efy8/9

> So if you are set to round cap and round joins the work to make suitable graphics is easier.
I want the arrow to be as sharp as possible :)

> What is "Bar" here ?
Sorry for my poor english, I mean 'thick line'.

> Possible settings are:
Yes, these are things for long arguing :). At the time when I did all
of these, I wanted all arrows to be 30^o wide and 120 units long
without variations.
