Exact Image is a fast (and soon modern and generic) image processing library. For a client we had to optimize the insane time imagemagick spent on certain image processing tasks. After the first code review it became clear that imagemagick was coded for anything but speed.

We protoyped the needed code in C++, just for speed, and archived processing times about 1/20 of what imagemagick consumes.

It is intended to become a modern, generic (template) based C++ library, when time permits. - Hopefully a viable alternative to ImageMagick.

What's New in This Release:
This release adds default parameters to the public API (where reasonable) and exports colorspace conversion.
Numerous problems with the external bardecode library have been addressed, such as the requirement of certain pixel alignments.
The econvert utility now uses the public API for some operations in order to avoid code duplication.
