Awesome. I never really liked miTranslate anyways; it seemed like premature optimization to me, although in the 80s when CPU cycles were slower than memory and compilers sucked at register allocation, it might have been a win in some cases. I doubt very much that it was ever measured though; we didn't have x11perf until long after it was enshrined in the API. -- [email protected]
