FWIW, I'm hoping to (eventually) also work on SVG support (using librsvg), PDF support (using PopplerKit, and implement Apple's NSPDFImageRep API), and DjVu support.

I'm not sure exactly what an image filter service is, or why it's needed. Right now, I'm just registering my class using NSImageRep's +registerImageRepClass:, so if you ask NSImage to load an XPM file, everything works fine. What else is needed? My current plan is to make it into a "user defined AppKit bundle", instead of making it a library as I'm currently doing it, so that every app can benefit from it. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
