  vector graphics
       
           (Sometimes called "object-oriented" graphics,
          though it's nothing to do with object-oriented programming).
          The representation of separate shapes such as lines, polygons
          and text, and groups of such objects, as opposed to bitmaps.
          The advantage of vector graphics ("drawing") programs over
          bitmap ("paint") editors is that multiple overlapping elements
          can be manipulated independently without using differenet
          layers for each one.  It is also easier to render an object at
          different sizes and to transform it in other ways without
          worrying about image resolution and pixels.
