<h3>Version 3.0.1 (22/Apr/2004)</h3>

  <p>- Improved compatibility with the old version, it was missing the load of Map images with <b>
  <b>imLoadRGB</b></b>.<br>
  - The FFTW code was from version 2.1.3, not from 2.1.5 as suposed, it was updated. The FFT functions were condensed in 
  only one file with an &quot;#ifdef&quot; for FFTW version 2 and 3. The FFT functions also were renamed to remove the &quot;W&quot; that 
  belongs only to the FFTW library.<br>
  - The <b><b>SetAttribute</b></b> functions now accept NULL in data to remove the attribute.<br>
  - New: <b><b>imProcessCrossCorrelation</b></b> and <b><b>imProcessAutoCorrelation</b></b> functions.<br>
  - The <b><b>imCalcGrayHistogram</b></b> function now can calculate the histogram of <b>
  <b>IM_MAP</b></b> 
  and <b><b>IM_BINARY</b></b> images.</p>

<h3>Version 3.0 (April 2004)</h3>

  <p>A major rewrite of the library. Everything changed, check the manual, but backward compatibility is kept for old 
  applications. A new API more flexible, new formats, support for attributes and video, image capture and image 
  processing. New: color spaces and data types. The library now got a professional look for scientific applications.</p>

<h3>Version 2.6 (May 2002)</h3>

  <p>Correction of bug in resolution reading and writing for format JPEG.</p>

<h3>Version 2.5 (August 2001)</h3>

  <p>Correction of bug in the default GIF compression. Two new callbacks: transparency color index for GIF files and 
  image description for TIFF files.</p>

<h3>Version 2.4 (February 2000)</h3>

  <p>Change in the treatment of LZW compression in formats TIFF and GIF. Now compression is no longer the default.</p>

<h3>Version 2.3 (June 1998)</h3>

  <p>Close function of the access driver for files in memory corrected. JPEG library updated to 6b. Correction of a 
  problem with the reading of some JPEG files.</p>

<h3>Version 2.2 (November 1997)</h3>

  <p>The definition of the counter callback was changed to inform, in a parameter, the type of access being performed, 
  either reading or writing. Type <strong>imCallback</strong> defined to make type casting easier when using function
  <strong>imRegisterCallback</strong>. Correction of a problem with the makefile in UNIX, which was generating link 
  errors in some platforms.</p>

<h3>Version 2.1 (October 1997)</h3>

  <p>Correction of a problem with internal memory liberation when reading Map images in TIFF files. Conversion <b>RGB to 
  Map</b> is now made using the algorithm implemented by LibJPEG. The algorithm of <strong>imResize</strong> was 
  improved for cases in which the size is being reduced instead of increased. Correction of a problem with functions
  <strong>imImageInfo</strong> and <strong>imFileFormat</strong>: when the provided file was not in a format recognized 
  by IM, there was an error in format TGA which caused these functions to access an invalid memory area.</p>

<h3>Version 2.0 (September 1997)</h3>

  <p>The library was virtually rewritten to implement a new structure which allowed greater flexibility, simplifying the 
  addition of new formats. Formats <strong>TGA</strong>, <strong>PCL</strong>, <strong>JPEG</strong> and <strong>LED</strong> 
  were added to the list of supported formats, and new functions were added: <strong>imMap2RGB</strong>, <strong>
  imRGB2Gray</strong>, <strong>imMap2Gray</strong>, <strong>imResize</strong>, <strong>imStretch</strong>.</p>

<h3>Version 1.1 (June 1996)</h3>

  <p>Small corrections to increase portability. Changes in return codes. Identifiers were created to return codes and 
  predefined parameters. Online manual concluded.</p>

<h3>Version 1.0 (October 1995)</h3>
