# p9

Yet another 9patch library for Love2D. Similar to [patchy](https://github.com/excessive/patchy)

and [slicy](https://github.com/wqferr/slicy), but it's a lot smaller, uses a GLSL shader for

rendering, wraps the texture instead of simply stretching it, and is permissively licensed.

## Usage

```lua

local p9 = require('p9')

local patch = p9.load('frame.9.png')

function love.draw()

	patch:draw(10, 10, 100, 100)

	local x, y, w, h = p:getContentWindow()

	love.graphics.setScissor(x, y, w, h)

	-- Do some drawing within the content region

	love.graphics.setScissor()

end

```

The `draw` method also returns the same values as `getContentWindow`.

## The format

The `.9.png` format is a regular image file, except the first/last rows/columns are intended as

metadata indicators.
