11A basic example of how to load a PNG file using LodePNG and alpha blending the image onto a window using basic (in RAM / non accelerated) pixel alpha blending.
0:00 Edit .nanorc for better tab indentation
0:04 Clone git repository to work it locally
0:07 Get LodePNG files from the web using wget -c URL
0:11 Start X11 session with a custom xterm console
0:13 Create file main.cpp
0:15 Create file display.h
0:19 Create file window.h
2:01 Create file color.h
2:20 Alphablend two pixels
2:35 Create file image.h
3:43 Create file bitmap.h
4:23 Load PNG file with LodePNG
5:30 Donwload PNG images for testing with wget
6:15 Write routine to get "ticks" in milliseconds
7:39 It works!
7:40 Add files to git repository and commit to GitHub
8:22 Resulting application
