Full Name:
----------
  Universal Image Library

System Group Name:
-----------------
  unimage

Type:
-----
  non-GNU software & documentation

License:
-------- 
  Modified BSD License

Description:
------------
  This library provides an unified interface for any image format for which
it has a plugin. Suppose you have to open a jpeg image, do some stuff, and
write out a bmp and a tiff of the resulting process, now you have to load the
libraries for jpeg, bmp, and tiff, and call each of their individual API's.
Instead of this the unimage provides a standard API, for reading manipulating
and writing files, thus enabling you to load a jpeg, write out a tif, bmp, or
whatever format it has a plugin for. Even if a format you have dosen't have a
plugin in unimage, you just have to write one once, and then use unimage to
load the image. The unimage library provides a standard representation of a
8, 16, or 32 bit image, downresing or upresing it automatically to save it in
the format you want;and it is not heavy, as it uses dynamic libraries;that is,
if you want to convert a tif into a png, it will only load the tiff and png
plugins.
