/**
 * \mainpage Asciiquarium.
 *
 * \section intro Introduction
 *
 * Asciiquarium is a KDE screensaver to draw an ASCII art aquarium.  This is the
 * documentation of the API used in the program to generate the effect.  It should
 * be fairly simple, but basically:
 *
 * class AASaver is the main class, which handles outside events.  All of the
 * processing happens in the Screen class however, which manages a list of
 * Sprites, updating them and drawing them as needed.  When AASaver receives a
 * paintEvent(), it forwards it on to Screen to handle it.
 *
 * Each Sprite is composed of 1 or more Frames.  When a Screen wants a Sprite
 * to draw itself, the Sprite forwards the request to its currently shown Frame.
 *
 * The Frame is rectangular, and created from textual ASCII art, with a ASCII
 * art shape and color mask.  The mask is optional.  See aasaver.cpp for
 * examples for creating a Frame.
 *
 * The Frame supports transparency and colors, and will convert the textual data
 * into a TQPixmap representation on demand in order to reduce CPU load (at the
 * expense of a slight memory usage increase for each sprite).
 *
 * Screen handles the timing for the project, and at each timeout will call
 * Sprite::tickUpdate() from Screen::doAnimate().
 *
 * This whole program was inspired/copied from Kirk Baucom's asciiquarium
 * program, from http://www.robobunny.com/projects/asciiquarium/
