    this class provides representation for all kinds of images

    (monochrome, greyscale and color) and may finally replace Form.

    Depths of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 are supported.

    An Image keeps all of its information in a device independent way,

    but may be associated to a device (i.e. getting a device-specific version of it).

    The data held keeps all information which was originally present,

    even if the display-device has lower resolution.

    Therefore, it is possible to process and manipulate images without loosing

    color information.

    Images may be created manually (by providing a pixel array),

    by screen capture, by reading a file (using an ImageReader) or

    dynamically computed by a pixelFunction (functional image).

    This gives you a device independent image.

    For display, a device representation is required, which can be

    aquired by sending the 'onDevice:aDevice' message to the image. 

    This creates a (possibly dithered) device-form,

    representing the image using the currently available colors.

    In rare cases, an explicit monochrome representation of the image is needed

    (some older X servers take monochrome icons only), this can be created by sending

    it the message

        'monochromeOn:aDevice'.

    As this class is very old and originated at times when typical graphic diplays only

    supported a limited number of colors (16 or 256), you will find a lot of code which deals

    with color allocation optimizations and dithering. Nowadays, these are hardly ever needed,

    and most of the time, images will be converted to 24bit truecolor (8x8x8) when converted

    to a device representation.

    An images pixel interpretation is controlled by the photometric instance variable

    and (if that is #palette) a colorMap.

    This is in contrast to the ST-80 way, where all of this info is in the colorMap

    (and using specialized colorMaps for b&w / greyScale images).

    This may change in future versions for more application compatibility.

    To convert pictures from/to external file-formats, image readers are used

    which have the file-format knowledge built in.

    There are readers for most common formats available

    (see ImageReader and especially subclasses such as TIFFReader, GIFReader etc.).

    File formats are handled by subclasses of ImageReader, which understand

    a specific format. You can add more readers, by adding an association

    to the mapping maintained in the MIMETypes class.

    (see the MIMETypes>>initialize and possibly the display.rc file, where this is done).

    Some algorithms used here (especially dithering & color allocation) are

    experimental and far from being perfect (some are very slow).

    For now, the most common cases have been optimized and perform reasonably

    fast - however, with uncommon depth/visualType combinations, you may

    run into very slow fallback methods. If this leads to problems, you may have to

    write a specially tuned (inline-C) version for that case.

    The pixelFunction enables dynamically computed functional images: instead of

    providing a byteArray containing pixel data, a function is used which maps

    x/y coordinates to a pixel value (see examples).

    For display, the bits array is used internally and filled by the function.

    Much more work is needed if you plan to do heavy image processing and will

    (may) be done in the future if there is a demand for it ...

    Dithering can be controlled by the DitherAlgorithm classVariable:

       DitherAlgorithm:

       nil                  a simple threshold algorithm

                            (i.e. for mono, p<0.5 -> black, p>=0.5 -> white)

       #pattern             patterned dither

                            (for p, take dithered color to fill pixel;

                             uses dithering in color-class)

       #error               error diffusion dither (Floyd-Steinberg)

                                            Default is true.

                                            fileName.

                                            A handler may return a replacement

                                            image or proceed with nil.

                                            If unhandled, a nil is returned from the

                                            image creation.

        BadImageFormatQuerySignal

                            <QuerySignal>   raised, if an image could not be loaded

                                            from a file due to a file error or

                                            unsupported format.

                                            A handler may return a replacement

                                            image or proceed with nil.

                                            If unhandled, a nil is returned from the

                                            image creation.

        ImageSaveErrorSignal

                            <Signal>        parent of errors below.

        FileCreationErrorSignal

                            <Signal>        file could not be created when saving an

                                            image.

        CannotRepresentImageSignal

                            <Signal>        the specified ImageReader cannot represent

                                            the given image.

        InformationLostQuerySignal

                            <Signal>        the specified ImageReader can represent

                                            the given image, but some information

                                            (typically color resolution) is lost.

                                            If unhandled, the save proceeds as usual.

    caveat:

        the information in

            photometric, bitsPerPixel, bitsPerSample, samplesPerPixel, depth , colorMap and maxPixelValue

        is partially redundant and its handling stupid (not to say: braindamaged ;-).

        The only excuse is that it grew over time, had to incorporate various alien/older schemes for

        compatibility reasons. All of the above belongs into the single colorMap which must migrate from

        a stupid seqColl to a color-aware real colorMap.

        (we are in the process of doing so...)

    todo:

        support alpha masks

        cleanup the dithering & conversion code

        cleanup the color/photometric mess
