Imager::Handy - simple access to common functions
use Imager ':handy'; my $color = NC(255, 0, 0); my $font = NF(1.0, 0, 0);
If you use Imager with the :handy import tag, it will export a number of functions that can shorter your code.
:handy
Create a new Imager::Color object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.
my $color = NC('red');
Create a new Imager::Font object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.
my $font = NF(file => 'foo.ttf');
Create a new Imager::Color::Float object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.
my $colorf = NCF(1.0, 0, 0);
NC() can be mostly replaced by supplying the color name or other description directly to the drawing method.
