This version needs Jack's img module and Sjoerd's new and improved (?)
X extensions for Python.
The last GL version is still available using the CVS tag "gl-editor".
* Moviechannel now uses colormap mode on 8-bit XS Indigo's instead of
converting the image to RGB32.
* Compression Library support is dependent on USE_CL compile-time flag.
because of buffering. Also added several new commands (Jack).
VFile.py: Made setting of RGB or colormap mode separate methods,
so they can be overridden (e.g. when using the Glx.draw widget
the way to change the mode is totally different).
- Renamed old Vcopy.py to OldVcopy.py, some cosmetic changes to it (is
it still needed?)
- Added new Vcopy.py which does everything that Vtime.py does but also
format conversions, image scaling, and packfactors.
- VFile: make packfactor always a tuple; introduce set and get methods
for pf, format, and calculate some derived values.
- Added new module GET.py to std library, use it instead of defining
DM* in VFile.
- Get rid of C programs (new Python programs can do all that they do
and they probably don't understand the current file format anyway).
the scanline width a multiple of 4.
VFile: use gl.gversion() to distinguish 4.0.1 and 4.0.5 Indigos;
truncate width and height to multiples of packfactor.
Vinfo: add -t to descriptive comment; print '!' after packfactor for
files that should be fixed with Vfix.
using module 'jpeg' by the Displayer class. (Unfortunately it's too
slow for real time.) Print file size in printinfo() method.
Vinfo: added -t option (terse -- one line per file) and usage message.
Vtime: use BasicV{in,out}File classes -- the minimum needed.
Vmkjpeg, Vunjpeg: new utilities for jpeg (de)compression.
Added class RandomVinFile which supports random access and warming the cache.
Added eofseen and errorseen methods to BasicVinFile.
Use RGB mode for rgb8 data on entry level Indigo.
Minor cosmetic changes.
