Yes, that's my bad. The agg_2d.pas unit was lagging behind for a while, 
because I never really used it until about 12-18 months ago.

We all love a mystery. ;-)

Yeah, probably not the best naming convention.

The agg_2D.pas unit is a 100% non-GUI unit. It is meant for console or 
web (eg: CGI) style applications. No GUI toolkit dependencies are required.

The "agg2D.pas" unit depends on fpGUI Toolkit, because it implements a 
fpGUI Canvas that uses AggPas for all it's 2D drawing routines. So it's 
a descendant of TfpgCanvasBase (a fpGUI class).
