-February 8th 2000 - 1.2.0
-* fixed last bitmap data block in JPEG files being truncated
-* fixed 4/8 bit BMP's incorrectly loading when the palette is smaller than the bitcount predicts
-- removed FI_Load. There is no reliable way to identify all image formats
-- removed FI_SetJpegDecodeMode.
- Mode selection is now done using the 'DataEnum data' parameter of FI_LoadJPEG
-! read_proc/write_proc/tell_proc in FreeImageIO now are same as fread/fwrite/ftell
-+ added a 'DataEnum data' parameter to all FI_LoadXXX functions.
-+ added 16 bit TARGA support
-+ added RLE support for TARGA images
-+ added FI_GetDIBSize to get the size of a DIB in bytes
-+ added Kodak PhotoCD support (Base, Base/4 and Base/16 encoding)
-+ added KOALA support
-+ added FI_GetFileType. Note: there is no reliable way to identify TARGA, ICO and PCD. Therefore they have been excluded
-In KOALA files only the files converted by a C64 emulator can be identified.
-+ added FI_Combine to combine two 24-bit bitmaps with (optional) alpha blending
-
-January 15th 2000 - 1.1.1
-! FI_Copy is now called FI_Clone
-+ added FI_ToGrayscale to convert a color bitmap to grayscale
-+ added 32 bit TARGA support
-+ added FI_IncreaseColors to increase the bitmap bitdepth from 4/8 bit to 24 bit
-
-January 14th 2000 - 1.1.0
-* FI_MIRROR: fixed nibbles not being mirrored in 4 bit images
-* FI_MIRROR: fixed bits not being mirrored in 1 bit images
-* fixed improper loading of 1, 4 and 8 bit OS/2 BMP's
-* fixed some inconsistensies in the calculation of lines and pitches
-* fixed incorrectly loading of Huffman and FAX encoded TIFFs
-* fixed LoadTGA accepting 16 bit TGA's and returning corrupt DIB's
-- removed LZW support for TIFFs
-! FreeImage now uses LibTIFF 3.5.4
-+ added ICO support
-+ added overridable file I/O support in the form of FreeImageIO and fi_handle
-+ added FI_Load for generic image loading
-+ added FI_ReduceColors for color reduction
-+ added FI_Copy to copy a bitmap in memory
