NOTE: In texture_setimage, I had to move variables to the top of the
scope because microsoft's C compiler will give the legacy C90 error of:
'illegal use of this type as an expression'.
To sum it up, microsoft's C compiler is still utter garbage.
Similar to the shader functions, the effect parameter functions take
the effect as a parameter. However, the effect parameter is pretty
pointless, because the effect parameter.. parameter stores the effect
pointer interally.
The locale parameter was a mistake, because it puts extra needless
burden upon the module developer to have to handle this variable for
each and every single callback function. The parameter is being removed
in favor of a single centralized module callback function that
specifically updates locale information for a module only when needed.
Having the value stored here is somewhat pointless, so this is one step
in fixing the locale handling. Locale should be handled by the modules
themselves with their own loaded locale lookup information.
Due to the recent change with matrices, the way space is represented by
matrices is a bit different. The matrix stack represents the view
matrix, rather than the model matrix, so the position is more
representative of the camera (view) itself, rather than that of the
objects (model).
This patch adds support for multi-screen setups by using xinerama
information if available to determine the screen size and position.
In case xinerama is not available or not active it uses the information
provided for the x screen.
To clean up the code some generic helper functions were moved to a
separate source file.
