Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package : yorick-z Version : 1.2.0 Upstream Author : David H. Munro * URL : http://yorick.sourceforge.net * License : BSD Description : zlib, jpeg, png and mpeg support for the Yorick language
This is a compiled add-on for yorick (an interpreted computer language specialized for numerical and scientific problems). Yorick-z adds support for zlib (the data compression system used by gzip), png (a lossless image compression format), jpeg (a lossy image compression format), and mpeg (mpeg1, a compressed video format). These are not supported in the basic yorick distribution, because each relies on a specialized library beyond what is required for basic yorick functionality. Note: MPEG support won't work out of the box. I am packaging the new version of Yorick (2.1.02) which includes support for plug-ins, as well as some of the available plug-ins. yorick-z is one of them.
