I've just started using DJGPP and Allegro and im impressed, But there are
two capabilities I wish it had that I havent been able to find in the
documentation.

Can I draw lines of varying thickness? Is their a trick to do this? An
Algorithm?

Can I display rotated text at any angle in graphics mode?

Is there an add-on library for either of these?

Thanks, Any help would be great.

P.S. If this is the wrong forum for Allegro questions, Im sorry. I would
like to know a good place to ask questions.
