-Imager 0.86
+Imager 0.86 - unreleased
===========
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - eliminate unused i_gif_opts type (clean-up)
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69245
+
+ - fix combine=0 fill color anti-aliasing on the double/sample path
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71309
+
+ - make default text color non-transparent
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71469
+
+ - apply the last of the Debian unforwarded spelling fixes
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=70656
+
+ - the log() method used its message parameter as a C level format
+ string.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71653
+
+ - provide our own STRLEN typemap entry for older perls.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71641
+
+ - add extra ppport.h configuration to support older perls.
+
+ - depend on Scalar::Util, since we use it and older perls don't have
+ it.
+
+ - add overloaded eq to Imager::Matrix2d, since older perls don't seem
+ to synthesize it from overloaded "".
+
+ - use T1_StrError() for error messages on modern libt1
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69879
+
+ - actually load the font rather than just adding it to the catalog on
+ creation.
+
+ - Imager::Font->new now produces better error messages for the T1
+ engine.
+
+ - the font has_chars() method now returns perl's true and false
+ values in list context rather than integers, which should be more
+ efficient.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69158
+
+ - the btm data structure used by the flood_fill code is now
+ initialized more efficiently.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=68994
+
+ - updated the Thanks list in README
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71607
+
+ - check there's at least one coefficient for the convolution filter
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=68993
+
+ - make the APIRef synopsis ordering consistent, older versions of
+ perl could order it differently.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71675
+
+ - we rely on Config.pm's d_vsnprintf as to whether we use
+ vsnprintf/snprintf, which is defined in the Win32 Config.pm even
+ though it only has _ prefixed versions of these. Define our own
+ prefixed names on Win32.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=71642
+
+ - fix library detection with MSVC
+
+Imager 0.85_01 - 10 Oct 2011
+==============
+
- add simple tests for the Imager::Test test_image generators
+ - io_glue I/O buffering re-work:
+
+ - reorganize io_glue to do it's own buffering by default
+
+ - the unbuffered functions are available as i_io_raw_read() (or
+ raw_read() from perl) etc but are not recommended for typical
+ use.
+
+ - use the new i_io_peekn() when checking for file magic to avoid
+ seek, allowing Imager to detect the file type and read the file
+ from an unseekable stream (for formats that don't use random
+ access)
+
+ - added several new I/O layer API functions.
+
+ - fix the TGA performance problem, most noticably on Win32
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=70037
+
+ - TIFF now uses wrapper functions of the correct types to avoid casts
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69912
+
+ - the callback IO object did its own buffering, controlled by the
+ maxbuffer parameter supplied to the read() and write() methods.
+ This buffering has been removed, to avoid redundancy with the
+ common io_glue buffering. This also avoids a bug in that code
+ which could rarely pass a zero length to the read callback and
+ then panic about the result.
+
+ - the callback IO object now tests the result of calling the close
+ callback, which should return true for success.
+
+ - the PNM reader did its own buffering. This buffering has been
+ removed to avoid redundancy with the common io_glue buffering.
+
+ - previously the read handlers for fd and callback I/O layers would
+ call the underlying interface (POSIX read or your supplied callback)
+ until it filled the buffer. It now only makes one call.
+
+ - added public constructors for I/O layer objects (see Imager::IO)
+
+ - all core file handlers now use the i_io_foo() wrappers to gain
+ access to buffered I/O rather than calling the I/O layer
+ callbacks directly.
+
+ - all core file handlers now check for error on close.
+
+ - Backward compatibility: if you hava custom file handlers, you can
+ use i_io_write() etc since they're available as macros in older
+ versions of Imager.
+
+ - eliminate the final remnants of io_glue_commit_types().
+
+ - bump IMAGER_API_VERSION, since the above may break assumptions.
+
+ - removed the long unused i_gen_reader() and i_gen_writer() utility
+ functions.
