Changes for version 1.1 - 1999-07-30

  • one of the most successful releases, in terms of features & bugfixes.
  • it was also a long night. And expensive (irc).
  • renamed gimp_drawable_mask to gimp_drawable_bounds to avoid clashes.
  • new enums.pl, some changes: SELECTION_* becomes * again.
  • compatibility fix for 5.005_58, also fixed a bug in Gimp::Pod.
  • removed register_magic_load_handler from Lib.xs (is in PDB).
  • preliminary <Load> and <Save> support (arguments are automatically supplied).
  • enabled limited pixel access functions even when PDL was not found, just enough to re-enable magick and implement miff.
  • implemented and added examples/miff (a load/save filter for miff images).
  • close DATA in Gimp unconditionally, saves one open filehandle.
  • fixed the longstanding preview bug in Gimp::UI by reversing the order of calls to draw_row. => something in gtk+ is really broken.
  • fixed a longstanding (but never seen ;) bug in old_pdl: pdls that were not sever'ed created garbage.
  • allow dummy dimension in grayscale pdls, i.e. pdl(1,width,height) instead of pdl(width,height).
  • improved gimpdoc & pixelmap.
  • removed debugging code from gouge. ouch!
  • bug fixed: PDL::Core was not automatically required when not already loaded.
  • passing undef as PARAM_STRING passes a zero pointer in install_proc. Required for load handlers. Ugh.
  • fixed typoe in Parasite::is_persistent and implement "new" method.
  • added new convinience function to Gimp::Util.
