[swift-users] Need Help with C-to-Swift (finally)

[Jack Lawrence]

For getter-setter pairs like `setLineWidth`, you might consider turning them into properties:

cairo.setLineWidth(0.1) // old
cairo.lineWidth = 0.1 // new

That being said, as a result of the specs, it is also much more verbose in terms of writing the code. Compared to other languages, it is written out instead of shoved onto a few lines.
