Re: [pygame] multi-width aalines and aacircles

Would it be possible to duplicate it for aalines?

Only the draw functions are exposed. It's possible they are faster than their pygame.draw equivalents since they use MMX. As for an aaline with width, having an algorithm to use would be a start. I do have an anti-aliased circle algorithm I translated to Python. Unfortunately I can't remember where I found it so am hesitant to use it.
