+internal one, otherwise it returns NULL.
+
+Packaged SMELT core functions==================================================
+All these functions are packaged in the class "SMELT".
+
+void smRelease() [core]
+Release one reference to the SMELT core. Once all references are released,
+the core will commit suicide and all resources used by it will be freed.
+
+bool smInit() [core]
+Initialize the SMELT interface, including the OpenGL/Direct3D interfaces, the
+OpenAL interfaces and the input interfaces. Functions from these interfaces
+won't function until smInit() is called. The application window will also
+be created.
+If the interfaces are initialized successfully, this function returns true,
+otherwise it returns false. The errors are written to stderr and the log file
+if set.
+
+void smFinale() [core]
+Deinitialize the SMELT interface. This function closes the application window
+and frees all resources managed by SMELT.
+
+void smMainLoop() [core]
+Starts the main loop, which calls UpdateFunc/FocFunc/UnFocFunc/QuitFunc at
+proper occasion.
+This function requires the UpdateFunc set and the initialization of the SMELT
+interface.
+
+void smUpdateFunc(smHook func) [core]
+Sets the update function.
+The update function returns bool and takes no parameters.
+If the update function returns true, the main loop will break, otherwise
+the main loop runs perpetually.
+The update function is called every frame.
+
+void smUnFocFunc(smHook func) [core]
+Sets the unfocus function.
+The unfocus function is called when the application window loses focus.
+
+void smFocFunc(smHook func) [core]
+Sets the focus function.

+
+void smWinTitle(const char* title) [core]
+Sets the application window title.

+bool smIsActive() [core]
+Returns true if the application window has focus.
+
+void smNoSuspend(bool para) [core]
+By default, the update function won't be called when the application
+window doesn't have focus (para=false).
+Call this with para=true to make SMELT behave differently.
+
+void smVidMode(int resX,int resY,bool _windowed) [core]
+Sets the application video mode.

+If we fit a texture onto this grid, we will see a parallelogram (probably
+glitched because it's only a 3*3 grid).
+The grid looks better when the resolution is higher.
+With this extension we can implement water/lens/wrapping effect and curved
+lasers easily.
+The indicatorCircular in the smIndicator extension is also implemented with
+smGrid.
+
+Public members of smGrid:
+-Default construction op (int,int)
+ This construction op requires the column&row count of the grid.

+ Constructs a new smGrid copying the given one.
+-Default destuction op.

+ Sets the positioning of the node at row r column c.
+ The z value is always directly set.
+ The x/y values are set according the reference setting.

+ GRID_REFTOPLEFT: reference point is the top left corner of the grid
+ GRID_REFCENTER: reference point is the centre of the grid
+ GRID_REFCURRENT: reference point is the current position of the node
+
+smIndicator====================================================================
+The extension implements several value indicators.
+
+Public members of class indicatorCircular/indicatorLinear:
+-void init(double r,double thkns,BYTE a,SMTEX tex,smTexRect tr)
+ Initialize the indicator with radius r, thickness thkns.
+ a is used as the initial alpha.

+ Overrides the default dynamic color with the static color.
+-void setAlpha(BYTE a)
+ Sets the indicator alpha
+-void setValue(double v)
+ Sets the value indicated by the indicator.

+
+smMath=========================================================================
+The extension provides several math routines.
+
+Common math routines:
+double smMath::deg2rad(double deg) converts degree to radian
+double smMath::rad2deg(double deg) converts radian to degree
+double smMath::clamprad(double a) clamps the given angle to [0,2*PI]

+0 00 04 08 12
+1 01 05 09 13
+2 02 06 10 14
+3 03 07 11 15
+Default constructor
+Copy constructor
+operator [] with this you can access the matrix
+ like (smMatrix)a[col][row]
+void clear() sets the whole matrix to 0
+void loadIdentity() sets the matrix to the identity matrix
+void rotate(double,double,double,double)
+ rotates the vector by (a,x,y,z) where
+ a is the rotation angle in radians and
+ (x,y,z) is the rotation axis.
+void lookat(double *eye,double *at,double *up)
+ all vectors have three elements.
+ This function produces a "look at"
+ matrix.
+ When the identity view matrix is
+ multiplied by the "look at" matrix, it
+ seems that you are at the "eye"
+ position, looking at the "at" opsition.
+ The up vector is used to determine the
+ pitch of the camera.
+operator * Matrix-matrix multiplication.
+operator * Matrix-vector multiplication.
+smProgresser===================================================================
+The extension implements several progressers useful for making transitions.
+All progressers work in the same way: it returns a value within [a,b] according
+to the current progress.
+
+All progresser have these functions publicly accessible:
+void init(double _a,double _b,double _lim,[additional parameters])
+Initializes the progresser with a=_a, b=_b and maximum progress _lim.
+void launch()
+Launch the progresser. This function actually resets the progresser.
+void update(double delta)
+Updates the progress with delta value delta.
+bool isDone()
+Check if the progresser has completed its progress.
+double getValue()
+Gets the current progresser value.
+double getPercentage()
+Gets the current progress percentage(always linear).
+double getDelta()
+Gets the current delta between progresser value and a.
+double getElapsed()
+Gets the current elapsed progress.
+
+Currently two types of progressers are implemented.
+-smProgresserLinear
+Normal linear progresser.
+-smProgresserCurve
+Curve progresser. This progresser requires an additional parameter to
+Initialize, which is the radius of the curve. The bigger abs(curvepara) is,
+the steeper the progressing curve will be. If curvepara=0, it will act
+as the linear progresser. The sign of the parameter controls the bending
+direction of the curve.
+
+smRandom=======================================================================
+The extension implements a pseudo random number generator.
+Pseudo random number generator always generates the same sequence of number
+provided that the seed and the calling sequence is the same.
+
+Public members of smRandomEngine
+void setSeed(unsigned int seed)
+Sets the random seed. The seed affects the next number generated.
+int nextInt(int min,int max)
+Generate a random integer. The seed is updated too.
+Please note that max is not necessarily greater than min.
+double nextDouble(double min,double max)
+Generate a random double. The seed is updated too.
+Please note that max is not necessarily greater than min.
+smTTFont=======================================================================
+The extension implements a freetype interface for SMELT.
+Two classes are implemented: smTTChar and smTTFont. smTTChar is implemented for
+internal use and should not be used outside the smTTFont class. Class smTTFont
+provides all interfaces for font rendering.
+
+smTTFont uses std::map to cache character glyphs. The cache is manually managed
+by the application. A cache too large in size may cause lags.
+
+Public members of smTTFont:
+-bool loadTTF(const char* path,int pt)
+ Loads a font from the given path. pt is used as the size of the font in
+ points.
+-bool loadTTFFromMemory(char* ptr,DWORD size,int pt)
+ Loads a font from the given memory block. pt is used as the size of the font
+ in points.
+-void releaseTTF()
+ Clear the cache and release the loaded font.
+-float getWidth()
+-float getHeight()
+ Gets the width/height of the buffered string.
+ The buffered string is modified by the updateString function.
+-void updateString(const wchar_t *format,...)
+ Update the buffered string.
+ Update the buffer only when you need to do so because this function is
+ relatively slow.
+ '\n' is processed correctly.
+ If a char is in the internal cache, it will be reused. Otherwise it will be
+ added to the cache.
+-void render(float x,float y,DWORD col,int align)
+ Renders the buffered string.
+ The align mode ALIGN_CENTER is not supported.
+ (x,y) defines the top-left coordinate of the rendered text when using
+ ALIGN_LEFT while it defines the bottom-right coordinate when using
+ ALIGN_RIGHT.
+ col defines the color of the rendered text.
+-DWORD getCacheSize()
+ Gets the internal cache size.
+ It is advised to keep the cache size relatively low, generally below
+ 100 thousand.
+-void clearCache()
+ Clear the internal cache. \ No newline at end of file
