sf::Texture::Texture(std::string file)

Okay, I did not think about that. But just be able to print an image in 1 or 2 liness would be nice (and without using too many variables).

Variables wont cost $. They make you think of a good name, helping you a few months later understanding your code.

It's already possible to do it in "two lines" without violating any taboos:

int main() {
    sf::Texture texture("thingy.png"); // line 1
    sf::RenderWindow window(...);
    while(window.isOpen()) {
        window.clear();
        window.draw(sf::Sprite(texture)); // line 2
        window.dispay();
    }
}
 

Is this not simple enough?

I don't see the point of line 2 being that compact. It's **really** rare to draw a sprite without custom position.
