[c5c522c]1# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
2# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
3# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
4# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must make
5# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also customary to
6# leave one space after the ':'.

10gd:
11gd: gd is a graphics library.  It allows your code to quickly draw images
12gd: complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from
13gd: other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a PNG or
14gd: JPEG file.  This is particularly useful in web applications, where
15gd: PNG and JPEG are two of the formats accepted for inline images by
16gd: most browsers.
