Best programming environment for basic 2D graphics?
Hi everyone, hopefully somebody here can help me. I am new to Linux/Knoppix and one of the first things I want to do is create a program that will draw simple 2D shapes on the screen, just various polygons really, moving rectangles etc. The same program must be able to make use of data being received from the COM port. My question is what is the best environment to achieve this? OpenGL?PyGame? Cairo?
All of these are new to me, my experience lies in C. Many thanks.
