So I don't think I'm going to be getting much productive done with 1.2 bugs done in a single day, and
the one I started working on yesterday is now fixed.

So might as well start thinking about D3DX9.

So here is why I thought maybe having a separate shape.c file might be good. I am very new to D3DX9 so
please pardon my ignorance, but simply looking at SDK, I see:

i) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb172976%28v=VS.85%29.aspx
Shape Drawing Functions are all defined in "D3dx9shape.h"

whereas 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb172973%28v=VS.85%29.aspx
Mesh Functions are all defined in "D3dx9mesh.h"

This is not a reason to implement shape drawing functions in a separate file _per se_, but additionally:

ii) all the tests in mesh.c do not rely on CreateWindow calls or Direct3DCreate9 calls whereas those for shape
functions inherently will (like line.c)

Thus, since I'm going to try to focus on d3dx9 stuff (hope code-freeze is over July 4th), it seems like it might be good
to have a separate file.

What is the argument for keeping them all in the mesh file besides that they are mesh creation functions?

Thank you
