I'm trying to get a grip on the Image module of PIL under MacOS. I was
able to open an image just fine using:
im = Image.open(pathname)
but whenever I try to do anything with this image -- even just get a pixel
value -- I get a traceback:
>>> im.getpixel( (0,0) )
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<input>", line 1, in ?
File "Birdsong:Users:Strout:tools:Python
1.5.2b1:Extensions:Imaging:PIL:Image.py", line 503, in getpixel
self.load()
File "Birdsong:Users:Strout:tools:Python
1.5.2b1:Extensions:Imaging:PIL:ImageFile.py", line 122, in load
self.im = Image.core.new(self.mode, self.size)
File "Birdsong:Users:Strout:tools:Python
1.5.2b1:Extensions:Imaging:PIL:Image.py", line 36, in __getattr__
raise ImportError, "The _imaging C module is not installed"
ImportError: The _imaging C module is not installed
No mention of "_imaging" is made in the PIL 0.2b3 manual. Can anyone
provide any insight here? What must I do to get at the pixels loaded by
Image?
Thanks,
