1. Just tested the speed gain owing to LuaJIT... With the previous release PGM-screenshot on my K3 was rather slow ('cause of 4bpp to 8bpp conversion), it took approximately 2.5s. Now it is completed after 0.30-0.31s that is the same value as I've observed with tiny c-compiled binary. Amazing! My congratulations! Thanks a lot.. Now I may finally test all the ideas that was previously postponed since I was afraid that it may take till the next millenium.
2. One more positive feedback - the old-time problem with the memory leaks at font glyphs releasing is finally gone. Excellent job, dpavlin!
3. I have also fixed some bugs & introduced a couple of new features. I wish I could have a bit more time to integrate them into new lua-code...
