GD4O: OCaml wrapper for the GD graphics library.

What is GD4O?
-------------

GD4O is an OCaml interface to the GD graphics library. It is based on
OCamlGD 0.7, developed by Shawn Wagner. Since that package is not
actively maintained at present--and, to the best of my knowledge, its
author does not intend to continue working on it--I decided to take up
development.

The goal of this project is to provide a complete and up-to-date
interface to GD. The current version is very incomplete, but may be
usable for very simple graphics.

Major changes from OCamlGD
--------------------------

* GD4O uses Findlib

* New drawing objects:

polygon
filled_polygon
filled_ellipse

* Implemented antialiased drawing

* Truecolor images

* TrueType fonts

* Created more extensive test program, which draws most available
shapes and tests all output methods.
