DESCRIPTION
gd is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images
complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from
other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a .GIF file.
This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications, where .GIF
is the format used for inline images.
gd is not a paint program. If you are looking for a paint program, try
xpaint by David Koblas, available by anonymous FTP from ftp.netcom.com
in pub/ko/koblas. (That package is for the X Window System; for the Mac
and the PC, paint programs are considerably easier to find.)
gd does not provide for every possible desirable graphics operation. It
is not necessary or desirable for gd to become a kitchen-sink graphics
package, but version 1.2 incorporates most of the commonly requested
features for a 2D package.
