Amazing work by Minad on #GNU #Emacs : https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=80281. His patch adds a canvas image type which adds a canvas to Emacs (direct pixel buffer manipulation that we very desperately need see: https://codeberg.org/MonadicSheep/emacs-reader/pulls/126#issuecomment-9191474).
This work was inspired by the various PALE demos by @divyaranjan.
This means emacs-reader and PALE will be able to delete a lot of hacks and have even better performance :D.
