render.library
-----------------------------
render.library is an amiga shared library that serves an image
processing kernel. it is an interface between truecolor and
chunky graphics, and it supports all amiga-specific pixel and
color schemes. render.library provides palette-management,
histograms, alpha-channel processing, color reduction, scaling,
rendering, dithering, texture-mapping, and many conversion and
support functions.

recent changes
-----------------------------
30.0
- improved memory management: RMHTYPE_POOL allocations are
now internally semaphore-protected for cross-task
allocations. this allows guigfx.library (v16) to be reset
to pooled memory environment.
29.1
- SortPalette() crashed with sort-modes that required a histogram,
and when the histogram was a non-TURBO type. this bug hasn't
been fixed, but 'de-implemented'. SortPalette() now returns
SORTP_NOT_IMPLEMENTED in this situation.
- bug fixed in the clib declaration of FreeRenderMem()
