Hi -- I just pushed my ctypes weekend exercise a bit hard, and got something that might be usefull (I hope)-
I just uploaded to the Pypi a thin ctypes wrapper for the Leptnica Library (http://www.leptonica.com) -- It parses the C source and generate Python wrappers for the library functions -- These can be much improved in the future, as currently one has to create the needed parameters by hand (C arrays, pointers, etc...) Nonetheless it seems to be working fine, and this library has a lot of functionality not present in PIL (I also wrote two utility functions to convert from and for Leptonoca images). Leptonica features extensive inline documentation of its functions in its source files, and this project transposes most of it to Python doc strings :-) The project is hosted at http://code.google.com/p/pylepthonica/ And it can be installed with: easy_install pyleptonica (Of course, one also has to install the binary leptonica library ) (I have not tested it in other OSes than Linux -- it is likely ctypes library laoding will need some tweaking) License is LGPL v3 Regards, js -><- _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
