* Right now gBitFormat is part of common/scaler.cpp; we might want to move it to common/system.cpp, or replace it with something better. No hasty changes here, please, make sure you understand how it is used right now before messing with it ;-) | * Right now gBitFormat is part of common/scaler.cpp; we might want to move it to common/system.cpp, or replace it with something better.

Hence consider removing these and related function in favor of a new API with which client code can query the backend for a description of the pixel format (maybe similar in spirt to [http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_5fPixelFormat SDL_PixelFormat], but maybe we can also reuse / extend a variant of gBitFormat). This is in particular useful for the new GUI code which wants to do things like color fading, and has to process a huge number of pixels. Of course, we must still accomodate for backends that only offer palette mode! | ||
