Introduction
============
Imlib2-Ruby is a Ruby interface to Imlib2.  All of Imlib2 (except for
X11 calls) has been wrapped.  I've provided a my test script and handful
of commented scripts in examples/, and there's an rdoc-generated API
reference in doc/ (which you can rebuild yourself by typing "rdoc
./imlib2.c").  Imlib2-Ruby is also available in the FreeBSD ports
collection (courtesy of Akinori Musha), and Debian packages are
available on Jon Bernard's download page at
http://cs.roanoke.edu/~jbernard/downloads.html or via apt (see the
Related Links section below for the appropriate source line).
Imlib2-Ruby is still a work in progress, so bug reports or patches are
welcome.  Feel free to email me at the address below if you have any
additional questions.
