This commit you have now is fairly stable, could you create a release so I could package it for Chromebrew?
I think a good release number would be 2.0.0.

Heya, I'd be happy to take a look at this in 2019 - pretty preoccupied with stuff for the remainder of the year. Set a reminder for myself to check this on Jan 5th, feel free to poke if I've not scoped it after that.

Happy holidays (or whatever you happen to celebrate~)!

So, circling back to this... can you define what you mean/need by "release"? It's been ~8 years since I touched this, lol...

I don't mind doing it, but more info on what you need would help direction.

Create a Git tag and a tarball of the repository. Like this:

git tag v2.0.0 && git push origin :refs/tags/v2.0.0

From there, you run this command.
A tarball of the repository will be located in your ~/Uploads folder:

git checkout v2.0.0 && rm -rf .git && mkdir ~/Uploads && make clean && tar cpf ~/Uploads/svgalib-1-2.0.0.tar . && xz -z9e ~/Uploads/svgalib-1-2.0.0.tar

From there, go to https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/svgalib-1/tags, select the three dots with the light background on the v2.0.0 box and select Create release. You then change the uppermost text box below Existing tag to say Version 2.0.0, and in the large text box, you write your release notes. You then go into your file manager of choice, navigate to Uploads, and drop svgalib-1-2.0.0.tar.xz on the box in your web browser that has the large down arrow in it. You click Create release, and you're done!

OH! This is all you needed? I'm an idiot, my bad - I thought there was more needed specific to the project, and lack of context from years of not touching it was leaving me confused.

Gimme a few and you'll have what you need~

Alright, should be up: https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/svgalib-1/releases/tag/2.0.0

Let me know if that's good enough for you. Thanks for the back and forth~
