I don't want to edit the ideas wiki page without getting another
opinion, so what about:
Me too - how about an image library? Being able to load/save popular
image formats from/to RGB pixel arrays would be a great start, with
everything else a bonus.
I was going to suggest *exactly* the same thing. Just loading the file
into raw bytes, and saving the raw bytes into a file. And even just PNG,
BMP, JPEG would be a huge step forward. Optionally GIF as well, now that
the patents have expired.
Like Jacob mentioned, Derelict has interfaces for DevIL, and also
SDL_Image if I recall correctly. Why isn't that good enough? I don't
know about DevIL, but I've used SDL_Image before, and I think the API
was perfectly fine. I mean, it was quite small, so there is not much
that needs to be adapted to make it more D-like.
