/*! \page displaylib GRASS Display Library

by GRASS Development Team (http://grass.osgeo.org)

This library provides a wide assortment of higher level graphics
commands which in turn use the graphics raster library primitives. It
is highly recommended that this section be used to understand how some
of the GRASS graphics commands operate. Such modules like
<tt>d.vect</tt>, <tt>d.graph</tt>, and <tt>d.rast</tt> demonstrate how
these routines work together.

The routines fall into four basic sets:
-# frame creation and management;
-# coordinate conversion routines;
-# specialized efficient raster display routines, and;
-# assorted miscellaneous routines like pop-up menus and line clipping.

Note: All routines and global variables in this library, documented or
undocumented, start with the prefix <b>D_</b>. To avoid name
conflicts, programmers should not create variables or routines in
their own modules which use this prefix.
