+ replaced tabs with spaces
+ cleaned up documentation
+ added callbacks for read/write and warning/error functions
version 0.89 [July, 1996]
- added new initialization API to make libpng work better with shared libs
- we now have png_create_read_struct(), png_create_write_struct(),
- png_create_info_struct(), png_destroy_read_struct(), and
- png_destroy_write_struct() instead of the separate calls to
- malloc and png_read_init(), png_info_init(), and png_write_init()
- changed warning/error callback functions to fix bug - this means you
- should use the new initialization API if you were using the old
- png_set_message_fn() calls, and that the old API no longer exists
- so that people are aware that they need to change their code
- changed filter selection API to allow selection of multiple filters
- since it didn't work in previous versions of libpng anyways
- optimized filter selection code
- fixed png_set_background() to allow using an arbitrary RGB color for
- paletted images
- fixed gamma and background correction for paletted images, so
- png_correct_palette is not needed unless you are correcting an
- external palette (you will need to #define PNG_CORRECT_PALETTE_SUPPORTED
- in pngconf.h) - if nobody uses this, it may disappear in the future.
- fixed bug with Borland 64K memory allocation (Alexander Lehmann)
- fixed bug in interlace handling (Smarasderagd, I think)
- added more error checking for writing and image to reduce invalid files
- separated read and write functions so that they won't both be linked
- into a binary when only reading or writing functionality is used
- new pngtest image also has interlacing and zTXt
- updated documentation to reflect new API

version 0.90 [January, 1997]
- made CRC errors/warnings on critical and ancillary chunks configurable
- libpng will use the zlib CRC routines by (compile-time) default
- changed DOS small/medium model memory support - needs zlib 1.04 (Tim Wegner)
- added external C++ wrapper statements to png.h (Gilles Dauphin)
- allow PNG file to be read when some or all of file signature has already
- been read from the beginning of the stream. ****This affects the size
- of info_struct and invalidates all programs that use a shared libpng****
- fixed png_filler() declarations
- fixed? background color conversions
- fixed order of error function pointers to match documentation
- current chunk name is now available in png_struct to reduce the number
- of nearly identical error messages (will simplify multi-lingual
- support when available)
- try to get ready for unknown-chunk callback functions:
- - previously read critical chunks are flagged, so the chunk handling
- routines can determine if the chunk is in the right place
- - all chunk handling routines have the same prototypes, so we will
- be able to handle all chunks via a callback mechanism
- try to fix Linux "setjmp" buffer size problems

version 0.95 [March, 1997]
- fixed bug in pngwutil.c allocating "up_row" twice and "avg_row" never
- fixed bug in PNG file signature compares when start != 0
- changed parameter type of png_set_filler(...filler...) from png_byte
- to png_uint_32
- added test for MACOS to ensure that both math.h and fp.h are not #included
- added macros for libpng to be compiled as a Windows DLL (Andreas Kupries)
- added "packswap" transformation, which changes the endianness of
- packed-pixel bytes (Kevin Bracey)
- added "strip_alpha" transformation, which removes the alpha channel of
- input images without using it (not neccesarily a good idea)
- added "swap_alpha" transformation, which puts the alpha channel in front
- of the color bytes instead of after
- removed all implicit variable tests which assume NULL == 0 (I think)
- changed several variables to "png_size_t" to show 16/32-bit limitations
- added new pCAL chunk read/write support
- added experimental filter selection weighting (Greg Roelofs)
- removed old png_set_rgbx() and png_set_xrgb() functions that have been
- obsolete for about 2 years now (use png_set_filler() instead)
- added macros to read 16- and 32-bit ints directly from buffer, to be
- used only on those systems that support it (namely PowerPC and 680x0)
- With some testing, this may become the default for MACOS/PPC systems.
- only calculate CRC on data if we are going to use it
- added macros for zTXt compression type PNG_zTXt_COMPRESSION_???
- added macros for simple libpng debugging output selectable at compile time
- removed PNG_READ_END_MODE in progressive reader (Smarasderagd)
- more description of info_struct in libpng.txt and png.h
- more instructions in example.c
- more chunk types tested in pngtest.c
- renamed pngrcb.c to pngset.c, and all png_read_<chunk> functions to be
- png_set_<chunk>. We now have corresponding png_get_<chunk>
- functions in pngget.c to get infomation in info_ptr. This isolates
- the application from the internal organization of png_info_struct
- (good for shared library implementations).

+ too large when writing an image with bit_depth < 8 (Bob Dellaca).

+ filler bytes should have been 0xff instead of 0xf.
+ Added max_pixel_depth=32 in pngrutil.c when using FILLER with palette images.
+ Moved PNG_WRITE_WEIGHTED_FILTER_SUPPORTED and PNG_WRITE_FLUSH_SUPPORTED
+ out of the PNG_WRITE_TRANSFORMS_NOT_SUPPORTED block of pngconf.h
+ Added "PNG_NO_WRITE_TRANSFORMS" etc., as alternatives for *_NOT_SUPPORTED,
+ for consistency, in pngconf.h
+ Added individual "ifndef PNG_NO_[CAPABILITY]" in pngconf.h to make it easier
+ to remove unwanted capabilities via the compile line
+ Made some corrections to grammar (which, it's) in documentation (Greg).
+ Corrected example.c, use of row_pointers in png_write_image().

+ for truecolor images that have defined a background. This corrects an
+ error that was introduced in libpng-0.90 that can cause gamma processing
+ to be skipped.
