In a file with multiple images, white space between the images is not
ignored. This means that instead of...
P1
2 2
01
10
P1
2 2
00
00
[eol]
The file must look like...
P1
2 2
01
10P1
2 2
00
00
[noeol]
... which is rather unexpected. In particular the requirement for no
final end-of-line is rather nasty. The following patch skips
white-space between images. Another possible improvement, in my mind,
would be to skip comments beginning with a # between images as well.
Cheers,
Shaun
