I would not take your time here if it were not for
        the fact that my log file shows some traffic to
        GD module in the last few days -- while I was still
        making changes to it. Since I have finished with it
        for now I might as well announce it here.

        GD module is a substitution for Gif module, which
        has been scrapped due to patenting issues (LZW
        compression algorithm). GD library, to which GD.hs
        interfaces, no longer suports GIF format and instead
        supports PNG and JPEG formats. Accordingly, I remade
        and renamed the package (Haskell module plus C driver)
        as GD. It is available here:

                www.numeric-quest.com/haskell/gd/index.html

        While I was at it, I made massive changes to function
        definitions (to improve their readability) and added
        a support for styles and brushes via a concept of Pen.
        All of this brakes some code in my other modules
        from www.numeric-quest.com/haskell/, and
        - I suppose - some of yours. I apologize for this.
