a2ping is a Perl script command line utility written for Unix that
converts many raster image and vector graphics formats to EPS or PDF
and other page description formats. Accepted input file formats are:
PS (PostScript), EPS, PDF, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, PNM, BMP, GIF, LBM, XPM,
PCX, TGA. Accepted output formats are: EPS, PCL5, PDF, PDF1, PBM,
PGM, PPM, PS, markedEPS, markedPS, PNG, XWD, BMP, TIFF, JPEG, GIF,
XPM. a2ping delegates the low- level work to Ghostscript (GS),
pdftops and sam2p. a2ping fixes many glitches during the EPS to EPS
conversion, so its output is often more compatible and better
embeddable than its input.
Changes:
RMagick 2.11.0
o Fix bug #26475, dissolve and watermark don't work with new versions of
ImageMagick (reported by Jim Crate)
o Add Image#composite_mathematics (available in ImageMagick 6.5.4-3)
o Add new LinearDodgeCompositeOp, LinearBurnCompositeOp,
PegtopCompositeOp, PinLightCompositeOp, VividLightCompositeOp enum values
(available in ImageMagick 6.5.4-3)
* active image follows keyboard focus
* added simple desktop file editor
* layout id "_current_" matches the currently active layout
window
* added a possibility to update existing bars from config
* added tooltips to external editors on toolbar, added "load
config" command to remote control
* added possibility to update existing layout window from config
* added function to reload external editors at any time
* added more IPTC tags
* implemented editing support in exif pane
* fixed loading of desktop file icons, gtk seems to expect an
icon name without extension
* compute histogram in idle time
* completely separated global and layout window options, layout
window configuration is available under separate menu entry
* do not allow to add keywords with the same name as siblings
* added keyword tree filtering
* show file name in advanced_exif
* handle sidecar files for raw formats that are not known to
exiv2
* added a dialog for editing keyword tree
* added a popup menu in keyword tree
* Remove the toggle on advanced exif window menu item.
* Advanced exif window: make all columns sortable and resizable.
* Display icons in edit contextual menu.
* In various Edit context menus, only display editors that
match the file types in the selection.
* allow dropping of multiple keywords
* show a label instead of the default drag icon
* implemented keywords editor as described at
http://geeqie.wiki.sourceforge.net/keywords
* Try to improve tab completion: when a key is pressed while
tab completion menu is shown, the number of entries is reduced,
dhowing all matching entries but the menu is no more closed
after each key pressure. Number of possible entries in this
menu was increased from 500 to 1000. Pressing TAB when path
entry is empty now adds / (root directory).
* added popup menu to the exif pane
* indicate that the exif pane is empty
* Display pixel coordinates and rgb, patch by Ruben Stein
* reorder exif pane entries with drag and drop
* overlay now survives image split
* Add a directory separator at the end of names in tab completion
list to indicate directories.
* Align exif labels vertically (visually better since name is
now smaller than value).
* Enable 'Use profile from image' item of color management menu
only if such profile information is available from image.
* In the side bar, display the filename without the 'Filename:'
prefix and makes it centered. Allow to select it for copy'n'paste.
* Color profiles menu: test for file access before allowing to
select it as input profile.
* load icons for external editors
* split overlay options between global and layout window
* save and restore toolbar configuration
* Add an indicator of the embedded color profile when recognized
(a * just after sRGB or AdobeRGB compatible).
* Color profiles menu: mark empty entries as inactive.
* Add a tooltip showing current histogram state on bar histogram.
* correctly save and restore overlay string
* Save bar pane histogram state to rc file.
* Add a contextual menu on bar pane histogram allowing to change
channels and mode.
* Drop histogram based on mean value.
* config file format changed to XML
* Add grid to bar histogram.
* Fix bug 2599857: file list sort order was wrong in many cases.
* separated "normal" and advanced exif, "Normal" exif is now
in the generic bar, advanced exif is in separate window.
* replaced bar_info with an universal bar
* Start with "Fit to window" in "Leave Zoom at previous setting"
mode
* do not switch to the next image on mouse click in split mode,
it interferes with image switching too much.
* Speed up random slideshow, startup time decreases from minutes
to seconds when amount of images is big. Patch by Kjell
Morgenstern.
* Do not show geeqie itself in editors menus.
* read external editors from .desktop files
* Invert Horizontally vs vertically zoom fit, it was a TRUE/FALSE
mismatch, reported by Christopher Beland.
* Remove harmful documentation.helpdir and documentation.htmldir
options. These paths can still be modified through with-readmedir
and --htmldir configure options. Reported by Christopher Beland.
* show symlinks in filelist
* added a status bar button for writting metadata immediately
* metadata write mode (direct or sidecar) made configurable
for each file format
June 30 2009 - V2.04
Integrated bug fixes and patches and misc changes for portability.
Integrated a patch to remove some of the "access" macros.
Removed dependence on lua from the viewer, speeding it up
dramatically.

Overview of changes from pycairo 1.8.4 to pycairo 1.8.6
=======================================================
Bug Fixes:
ImageSurface.create_from_png _read_func fix
ToyFontFace type fix
19221: restore cairo.Matrix '*' operator to the way it originally worked.
Other Changes:
Documentation completed.
what the options do and which have large-bloat consequences.
(I know that we have option-descriptions, but they aren't adequate to
understand either what the options do in graphviz, or how big the
resulting additional dependencies are.)
This commit only adds comments.
Shared directories can now be created independently by the pacakges
needing them and will be removed automatically by pkg_delete when empty.
Packages needing empty directories can use the @pkgdir command in PLIST.
Discussed and ok'd in thread starting at
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2009/06/30/msg003546.html

TimeStamp for this to work)

- Added ability to specify geotagging parameters via config file
- API Changes:

version 1.2.38beta01 [June 17, 2009]
Revised libpng*.txt and libpng.3 to mention calling png_set_IHDR()
multiple times and to specify the sample order in the tRNS chunk,
because the ISO PNG specification has a typo in the tRNS table.
Changed several PNG_UNKNOWN_CHUNK_SUPPORTED to
PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED, to make the png_set_keep mechanism
available for ignoring known chunks even when not saving unknown chunks.
Adopted preference for consistent use of "#ifdef" and "#ifndef" versus
"#if defined()" and "if !defined()" where possible.
Added PNG_NO_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN in the PNG_LEGACY_SUPPORTED block of
pngconf.h, and moved the various unknown chunk macro definitions
outside of the PNG_READ|WRITE_ANCILLARY_CHUNK_SUPPORTED blocks.
