changelog

Version 9b  17-Jan-2016
-----------------------

Improvements and optimizations in DCT and color calculations.
Normalize range limit array composition and access pattern.
Thank to Sia Furler and Maddie Ziegler for inspiration.

Use merged upsample with scaled DCT sizes larger than 8.
Thank to Taylor Hatala for inspiration.

Check for excessive comment lengths in argument parsing in wrjpgcom.c.
Thank to Julian Cohen for hint.

Add makefile.b32 for use with Borland C++ 32-bit (bcc32).
Thank to Joe Slater for contribution.

Document 'f' specifier for jpegtran -crop specification.
Thank to Michele Martone for suggestion.

Use defined value from header instead of hardwired number in rdswitch.c.
Thank to Robert Sprowson for hint.


Version 9a  19-Jan-2014
-----------------------

Add support for wide gamut color spaces (JFIF version 2).
Improve clarity and accuracy in color conversion modules.
Note: Requires rebuild of test images.

Extend the bit depth support to all values from 8 to 12
(BITS_IN_JSAMPLE configuration option in jmorecfg.h).
jpegtran now supports N bits sample data precision with all N from 8 to 12
in a single instance.  Thank to Roland Fassauer for inspiration.

Try to resolve issues with new boolean type definition.
Thank also to v4hn for suggestion.

Enable option to use default Huffman tables for lossless compression
(for hardware solution), and in this case improve lossless RGB compression
with reversible color transform.  Thank to Benny Alexandar for hint.

Extend the entropy decoding structure, so that extraneous bytes between
compressed scan data and following marker can be reported correctly.
Thank to Nigel Tao for hint.

Add jpegtran -wipe option and extension for -crop.
