""" Module images2gif

Provides functionality for reading and writing animated GIF images.
Use writeGif to write a series of numpy arrays or PIL images as an
animated GIF. Use readGif to read an animated gif as a series of numpy
arrays.

Note that since July 2004, all patents on the LZW compression patent have
expired. Therefore the GIF format may now be used freely.

Acknowledgements
----------------

Many thanks to Ant1 for:
* noting the use of "palette=PIL.Image.ADAPTIVE", which significantly
  improves the results.
* the modifications to save each image with its own palette, or optionally
  the global palette (if its the same).

Many thanks to Marius van Voorden for porting the NeuQuant quantization
algorithm of Anthony Dekker to Python (See the NeuQuant class for its
license).

Many thanks to Alex Robinson for implementing the concept of subrectangles,
which (depening on image content) can give a very significant reduction in
file size.

This code is based on gifmaker (in the scripts folder of the source
distribution of PIL)

    Write an animated gif from the specified images.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename : string
        The name of the file to write the image to.
    images : list
        Should be a list consisting of PIL images or numpy arrays.
        The latter should be between 0 and 255 for integer types, and
        between 0 and 1 for float types.
    duration : scalar or list of scalars
        The duration for all frames, or (if a list) for each frame.
    repeat : bool or integer
        The amount of loops. If True, loops infinitetely.
    dither : bool
        Whether to apply dithering
    nq : integer
        If nonzero, applies the NeuQuant quantization algorithm to create
        the color palette. This algorithm is superior, but slower than
        the standard PIL algorithm. The value of nq is the quality
        parameter. 1 represents the best quality. 10 is in general a
        good tradeoff between quality and speed. When using this option,
        better results are usually obtained when subRectangles is False.
    subRectangles : False, True, or a list of 2-element tuples
        Whether to use sub-rectangles. If True, the minimal rectangle that
        is required to update each frame is automatically detected. This
        can give significant reductions in file size, particularly if only
        a part of the image changes. One can also give a list of x-y
        coordinates if you want to do the cropping yourself. The default
        is True.
    dispose : int
        How to dispose each frame. 1 means that each frame is to be left
        in place. 2 means the background color should be restored after
        each frame. 3 means the decoder should restore the previous frame.
        If subRectangles==False, the default is 2, otherwise it is 1.

class NeuQuant:
    """ NeuQuant(image, samplefac=10, colors=256)

    samplefac should be an integer number of 1 or higher, 1
    being the highest quality, but the slowest performance.
    With avalue of 10, one tenth of all pixels are used during
    training. This value seems a nice tradeof between speed
    and quality.

    colors is the amount of colors to reduce the image to. This
    should best be a power of two.
