[Image-SIG] ANN: PIL 1.1.5 alpha 4 (september 19, 2004)

[Fredrik Lundh]

A PIL 1.1.5 alpha 5 tarball is now available from effbot.org:

    http://effbot.org/downloads#imaging

(look for Imaging-1.1.5a5.tar.gz)

Changes in this release includes

+ Build improvements: Fixed building under AIX, improved detection of
  FreeType2 and Mac OS X framework libraries, and more.  Many thanks
  to everyone who helped test the new "setup.py" script!

+ Added "getcolors()" method.  This is similar to the existing histo-
  gram method, but looks at color values instead of individual layers,
  and returns an unsorted list of (count, color) tuples.

  By default, the method returns None if finds more than 256 colors.
  If you need to look for more colors, you can pass in a limit (this
  is used to allocate internal tables, so you probably don't want to
  pass in too large values).

+ Fixed BILINEAR/BICUBIC/ANTIALIAS filtering for mode "LA".
