SDL is massive to what I plan on doing, and SDL is dependent on X11. I don't
plan on making it powerful enough to really do any graphics, although I'd branch
the driver, one for minimal use in a high resolution terminal environment, and
the other could be for maybe designing a whole new future for even games and such.
