TinyPTC/X11

If you're looking for a lightweight framebuffer library for your X Window system, TinyPTC/X11 might just be the solution for you. It is an optimized subset of OpenPTC that focuses on size reduction. While it may be considered a "low-level" graphics library that runs on top of XLib, it offers a handful of functionalities that can allow for easier graphics management when working with framebuffer devices.

TinyPTC takes care of the grunt work in graphics output for programs that utilize X11, automatically managing display and window components. Here are some key features of TinyPTC/X11:

- Automatic display management
- Support for XLib, DBE, XVideo, and Mit-Shm window management
- DGA 1.x and 2.x support, including videomode and fullscreen emulation
- Automatic color conversion to RGB and BGR modes
- Event management that automatically quits when the ESC key is pressed or the window is closed by the user

The library also comes with two versions - one with MMX conversions and one without.

In terms of updates, the most recent release of TinyPTC/X11 has fixed a typo in the Python source and included updated documentation. If you're looking for a lightweight solution for managing graphics output in your X11-based programs, TinyPTC/X11 may be a good option to consider.
