0.3.0 closed all ten API gaps this port had filed. The four workarounds go
with them: the CMake block that declared libakgl's vendored dependencies by
hand, the akgl/actor.h include in three files, and the six vtable pointers
assigned by hand in two more, now akgl_render_bind2d().
Two gaps were capabilities rather than inconveniences, and both are now real:
The line editor takes the composed UTF-8 text the ring carries in preference
to the keycode, so shifted characters, keyboard layouts, compose keys and dead
keys all work. A double quote can be typed, which means a BASIC string literal
can be typed -- the sharp end of the old limitation. Letters are no longer
folded to upper case.
SOUND's dir/min/step reach akgl_audio_sweep instead of being refused. dir 3
sweeps once rather than oscillating and TODO.md section 5 says so. A backend
with no sweep still refuses the swept note and plays the held one.
The adaptors now carry an AKGL_VERSION_AT_LEAST(0, 3, 0) floor, verified by
temporarily demanding 0.4.0 and watching it fire.

Groups G, I and E are unblocked but cannot be written yet: the core library is
free of SDL and builds with no libakgl present, so a graphics verb cannot call
akgl_draw_* and a sound verb cannot call akgl_audio_*. This adds what they call
instead.
Three records of function pointers -- akbasic_GraphicsBackend, _AudioBackend and
_InputBackend -- in the same shape as akbasic_TextSink, and the same shape
libakgl uses for akgl_RenderBackend. akbasic_runtime_set_devices() attaches any
subset; all three may be NULL and that is the standalone driver's normal state,
so a runtime with no backends still comes up and still prints. A verb that needs
one it was not given raises the new AKBASIC_ERR_DEVICE rather than dereferencing
a NULL vtable.
Two decisions worth stating. The graphics record has no circle entry point:
BASIC 7.0's CIRCLE takes two radii, an arc range, a rotation and a degree
increment, which makes it a polygon by definition, so it will be built from line
calls rather than from akgl_draw_circle. And coordinates are double rather than
an integer pixel address, because SCALE makes them fractional and rounding at
each verb rather than once at the backend accumulates drift along a polyline.
akbasic_runtime_settime() is how SOUND, PLAY and TEMPO get a clock without the
library reading one. Section 1.6 forbids blocking or owning a loop, so the caller
that owns the frame owns the time -- which is what libakgl already does, since
akgl_actor_logic_changeframe takes curtimems as an argument. Left unset it is
zero and every duration expires immediately: audible, but never a hang.
AKBASIC_ERR_LAST is a sentinel rather than a status, so tests/error_codes.c walks
every code looking for an unnamed one without anybody remembering to widen the
loop when a code is added.
tests/mockdevice.h records every backend call as a formatted line. The graphics
and audio verbs emit nothing a golden file can compare, so that log is where
their assertions have to live -- and since it needs no SDL, the whole of groups
G, I and E stays testable in the default build.
62/62 ctest, clean under -Wall -Wextra, doxygen clean.
