[SIP-devel] new development release!

[Ricardo F. <rf...@if...>]

Dear co-developers,

sip-dev 20030804 has just been released:

   + New function: bwdist, for distance tranform. A new very fast
   exact euclidean method is available (Lotufo-Zampirolli 2001).

   + New function: imnoise, to generate a few types of noise, such as
   gaussian white noise, salt & pepper, and more.

   + im2gray and gray_imread are now much faster

   + im2bw threshold is by default taken relatively to the maximum value
   of the image, instead of 255. This approach is more convenient.

   + autoreconf now works without any error messages


It installs easily under Linux or Unix platforms, as long as you
install the dependencies first, which are:
	- www.imagemagick.org
	- http://gandalf-library.sourceforge.net
	- http://animal.sourceforge.net

have fun :)
Ricardo.
