-HERMES is a library designed to convert a source buffer with a specified
-pixel format to a destination buffer with possibly a different format at
-the maximum possible speed.
-
-On x86 and MMX architectures, handwritten assembler routines are taking over
-the job and doing it lightning fast.
-
-On top of that, HERMES provides fast surface clearing, stretching and some
-dithering. Supported platforms are basically all that have an ANSI C
-compiler as there is no platform specific code but those are supported: DOS,
-Win32 (Visual C), Linux, FreeBSD (IRIX, Solaris are on hold at the moment)
