     1== About libpipi ==
     2
     3Libpipi is a graphics imaging library. It stands for "Proper Image Processing Implementation".
     4
     5Amongst the goals of libpipi are:
     6 * implement state-of-the art image manipulation algorithms
     7 * reimplement ImageMagick (and its derivatives) with ''speed'' and ''quality'' in mind
     8 * serve as a fundation library for [wiki:PWNtcha], [wiki:img2oric] and other projects, maybe [wiki:libcucul]

     10== Status ==
     11
     12Libpipi is still at the '''experimentation stage'''. There is still a long way until we even have a working prototype.
     13
     14We are already significantly faster than ImageMagick for some very common tasks (Gaussian blur) and we implement better quality algorithms (Direct Binary Search halftoning).

     16The current source code can be downloaded from svn://libcaca.zoy.org/libcaca/libpipi/trunk/
