Implementation notes
====================

(current as of fsv 0.9)


The main event loop (gtk_main( )) is entered the end of the main( )
procedure in fsv.c.

Animation is triggered by the redraw( ) call, in animation.c. This
hooks in animation_loop( ) as an idle loop, which in turn calls the
top-level functions necessary to draw a single frame. These include:

	animation.c:morph_iteration( )
		updates values of dynamically changing variables

	ogl_draw( )
		resets GL state and calls geometry_draw( ), which
		dispatches to the appropriate set of drawing functions
		deep inside geometry.c

	animation.c:framerate_iteration( )
		called every time a frame is rendered; keeps tabs on
		framerate

	animation.c:scheduled_event_iteration( )
		executes callbacks which have been previous registered to
		fire after a given number of frames

I'm not sure what else to add here, but if I receive questions, I'll
incorporate the answers in this document.
