+Pure Python PNG Reader/Writer
+
+This Python module implements support for PNG images (see PNG
+specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-PNG-20031110/ ). It reads
+and writes PNG files with all allowable bit depths (1/2/4/8/16/24/32/48/64
+bits per pixel) and colour combinations: greyscale (1/2/4/8/16 bit); RGB,
+RGBA, LA (greyscale with alpha) with 8/16 bits per channel; colour mapped
+images (1/2/4/8 bit).  Adam7 interlacing is supported for reading and
+writing.  A number of optional chunks can be specified (when writing)
+and understood (when reading): ``tRNS``, ``bKGD``, ``gAMA``.
+
+For help, type ``import png; help(png)`` in your python interpreter.
+
+A good place to start is the :class:`Reader` and :class:`Writer` classes.
+
+Requires Python 2.3.  Limited support is available for Python 2.2, but
+not everything works.  Best with Python 2.4 and higher.  Installation is
+trivial, but see the ``README.txt`` file (with the source distribution)
+for details.
+
+This file can also be used as a command-line utility to convert
+`Netpbm <http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/>`_ PNM files to PNG, and the reverse conversion from PNG to
+PNM. The interface is similar to that of the ``pnmtopng`` program from
+Netpbm.  Type ``python png.py --help`` at the shell prompt
+for usage and a list of options.
+
+A note on spelling and terminology
+----------------------------------
+
+Generally British English spelling is used in the documentation.  So
+that's "greyscale" and "colour".  This not only matches the author's
+native language, it's also used by the PNG specification.
+
+The major colour models supported by PNG (and hence by PyPNG) are:
+greyscale, RGB, greyscale--alpha, RGB--alpha.  These are sometimes
+referred to using the abbreviations: L, RGB, LA, RGBA.  In this case
+each letter abbreviates a single channel: *L* is for Luminance or Luma or
+Lightness which is the channel used in greyscale images; *R*, *G*, *B* stand
+for Red, Green, Blue, the components of a colour image; *A* stands for
+Alpha, the opacity channel (used for transparency effects, but higher
+values are more opaque, so it makes sense to call it opacity).
+
+A note on formats
+-----------------
+
+When getting pixel data out of this module (reading) and presenting
+data to this module (writing) there are a number of ways the data could
+be represented as a Python value.  Generally this module uses one of
+three formats called "flat row flat pixel", "boxed row flat pixel", and
+"boxed row boxed pixel".  Basically the concern is whether each pixel
+and each row comes in its own little tuple (box), or not.
+
+Consider an image that is 3 pixels wide by 2 pixels high, and each pixel
+has RGB components:
+
+Boxed row flat pixel::
+
+  list([R,G,B, R,G,B, R,G,B],
+       [R,G,B, R,G,B, R,G,B])
+
+Each row appears as its own list, but the pixels are flattened so that
+three values for one pixel simply follow the three values for the previous
+pixel.  This is the most common format used, because it provides a good
+compromise between space and convenience.  PyPNG regards itself as
+at liberty to replace any sequence type with any sufficiently compatible
+other sequence type; in practice each row is an array (from the array
+module), and the outer list is sometimes an iterator rather than an
+explicit list (so that streaming is possible).
+
+Flat row flat pixel::
+
+  [R,G,B, R,G,B, R,G,B,
+   R,G,B, R,G,B, R,G,B]
+
+The entire image is one single giant sequence of colour values.
+Generally an array will be used (to save space), not a list.
+
+Boxed row boxed pixel::
+
+  list([ (R,G,B), (R,G,B), (R,G,B) ],
+       [ (R,G,B), (R,G,B), (R,G,B) ])
+
+Each row appears in its own list, but each pixel also appears in its own
+tuple.  A serious memory burn in Python.
+
+In all cases the top row comes first, and for each row the pixels are
+ordered from left-to-right.  Within a pixel the values appear in the
+order, R-G-B-A (or L-A for greyscale--alpha).
+
+There is a fourth format, mentioned because it is used internally,
+is close to what lies inside a PNG file itself, and has some support
+from the public API.  This format is called packed.  When packed,
+each row is a sequence of bytes (integers from 0 to 255), just as
+it is before PNG scanline filtering is applied.  When the bit depth
+is 8 this is essentially the same as boxed row flat pixel; when the
+bit depth is less than 8, several pixels are packed into each byte;
+when the bit depth is 16 (the only value more than 8 that is supported
+by the PNG image format) each pixel value is decomposed into 2 bytes
+(and `packed` is a misnomer).  This format is used by the
+:meth:`Writer.write_packed` method.  It isn't usually a convenient
+format, but may be just right if the source data for the PNG image
+comes from something that uses a similar format (for example, 1-bit
+BMPs, or another PNG file).

+        transparent

+        background

+          Create an interlaced image.
+        chunk_limit
+          Write multiple ``IDAT`` chunks to save memory.
+
+        The image size (in pixels) can be specified either by using the
+        `width` and `height` arguments, or with the single `size`
+        argument.  If `size` is used it should be a pair (*width*,
+        *height*).
+
+        `greyscale` and `alpha` are booleans that specify whether
+        an image is greyscale (or colour), and whether it has an
+        alpha channel (or not).
+
+        `bitdepth` specifies the bit depth of the source pixel values.
+        Each source pixel value must be an integer between 0 and
+        ``2**bitdepth-1``.  For example, 8-bit images have values
+        between 0 and 255.  PNG only stores images with bit depths of
+        1,2,4,8, or 16.  When `bitdepth` is not one of these values,
+        the next highest valid bit depth is selected, and an ``sBIT``
+        (significant bits) chunk is generated that specifies the original
+        precision of the source image.  In this case the supplied pixel
+        values will be rescaled to fit the range of the selected bit depth.
+
+        The details of which bit depth / colour model combinations the
+        PNG file format supports directly, are somewhat arcane
+        (refer to the PNG specification for full details).  Briefly:
+        "small" bit depths (1,2,4) are only allowed with greyscale and
+        colour mapped images; colour mapped images cannot have bit depth
+        16.
+
+        For colour mapped images (in other words, when the `palette`
+        argument is specified) the `bitdepth` argument must match one of
+        the valid PNG bit depths: 1, 2, 4, or 8.  (It is valid to have a
+        PNG image with a palette and an ``sBIT`` chunk, but the meaning
+        is slightly different; it would be awkward to press the
+        `bitdepth` argument into service for this.)
+
+        The `palette` option, when specified, causes a colour mapped image
+        to be created: the PNG colour type is set to 3; greyscale
+        must not be set; alpha must not be set; transparent must
+        not be set; the bit depth must be 1,2,4, or 8.  When a colour
+        mapped image is created, the pixel values are palette indexes
+        and the `bitdepth` argument specifies the size of these indexes
+        (not the size of the colour values in the palette).
+
+        The palette argument value should be a sequence of 3- or
+        4-tuples.  3-tuples specify RGB palette entries; 4-tuples
+        specify RGBA palette entries.  If both 4-tuples and 3-tuples
+        appear in the sequence then all the 4-tuples must come
+        before all the 3-tuples.  A ``PLTE`` chunk is created; if there
+        are 4-tuples then a ``tRNS`` chunk is created as well.  The
+        ``PLTE`` chunk will contain all the RGB triples in the same
+        sequence; the ``tRNS`` chunk will contain the alpha channel for
+        all the 4-tuples, in the same sequence.  Palette entries
+        are always 8-bit.
+
+        If specified, the `transparent` and `background` parameters must
+        be a tuple with three integer values for red, green, blue, or
+        a simple integer (or singleton tuple) for a greyscale image.
+
+        If specified, the `gamma` parameter must be a positive number
+        (generally, a float).  A ``gAMA`` chunk will be created.  Note that
+        this will not change the values of the pixels as they appear in
+        the PNG file, they are assumed to have already been converted
+        appropriately for the gamma specified.
+
+        The `compression` argument specifies the compression level
+        to be used by the ``zlib`` module.  Higher values are likely
+        to compress better, but will be slower to compress.  The
+        default for this argument is ``None``; this does not mean
+        no compression, rather it means that the default from the
+        ``zlib`` module is used (which is generally acceptable).
+
+        If `interlace` is true then an interlaced image is created
+        (using PNG's so far only interace method, *Adam7*).  This does not
+        affect how the pixels should be presented to the encoder, rather
+        it changes how they are arranged into the PNG file.  On slow
+        connexions interlaced images can be partially decoded by the
+        browser to give a rough view of the image that is successively
+        refined as more image data appears.
+        
+        .. note ::
+        
+          Enabling the `interlace` option requires the entire image
+          to be processed in working memory.
+
+        `chunk_limit` is used to limit the amount of memory used whilst
+        compressing the image.  In order to avoid using large amounts of
+        memory, multiple ``IDAT`` chunks may be created.

+def from_array(a, mode=None, info={}):
+    """Create a PNG :class:`Image` object from a 2- or 3-dimensional array.
+    One application of this function is easy PIL-style saving:
+    ``png.from_array(pixels, 'L').save('foo.png')``.
+
+    .. note :
+
+      The use of the term *3-dimensional* is for marketing purposes
+      only.  It doesn't actually work.  Please bear with us.  Meanwhile
+      enjoy the complimentary snacks (on request) and please use a
+      2-dimensional array.
+    
+    Unless they are specified using the *info* parameter, the PNG's
+    height and width are taken from the array size.  For a 3 dimensional
+    array the first axis is the height; the second axis is the width;
+    and the third axis is the channel number.  Thus an RGB image that is
+    16 pixels high and 8 wide will use an array that is 16x8x3.  For 2
+    dimensional arrays the first axis is the height, but the second axis
+    is ``width*channels``, so an RGB image that is 16 pixels high and 8
+    wide will use a 2-dimensional array that is 16x24 (each row will be
+    8*3==24 sample values).
+
+    *mode* is a string that specifies the image colour format in a
+    PIL-style mode.  It can be:
+
+    ``'L'``
+      greyscale (1 channel)
+    ``'LA'``
+      greyscale with alpha (2 channel)
+    ``'RGB'``
+      colour image (3 channel)
+    ``'RGBA'``
+      colour image with alpha (4 channel)
+
+    The mode string can also specify the bit depth (overriding how this
+    function normally derives the bit depth, see below).  Appending
+    ``';16'`` to the mode will cause the PNG to be 16 bits per channel;
+    any decimal from 1 to 16 can be used to specify the bit depth.
+
+    When a 2-dimensional array is used *mode* determines how many
+    channels the image has, and so allows the width to be derived from
+    the second array dimension.
+
+    The array is expected to be a ``numpy`` array, but it can be any
+    suitable Python sequence.  For example, a list of lists can be used:
+    ``png.from_array([[0, 255, 0], [255, 0, 255]], 'L')``.  The exact
+    rules are: ``len(a)`` gives the first dimension, height;
+    ``len(a[0])`` gives the second dimension; ``len(a[0][0])`` gives the
+    third dimension, unless an exception is raised in which case a
+    2-dimensional array is assumed.  It's slightly more complicated than
+    that because an iterator of rows can be used, and it all still
+    works.  Using an iterator allows data to be streamed efficiently.
+
+    The bit depth of the PNG is normally taken from the array element's
+    datatype (but if *mode* specifies a bitdepth then that is used
+    instead).  The array element's datatype is determined in a way which
+    is supposed to work both for ``numpy`` arrays and for Python
+    ``array.array`` objects.  A 1 byte datatype will give a bit depth of
+    8, a 2 byte datatype will give a bit depth of 16.  If the datatype
+    does not have an implicit size, for example it is a plain Python
+    list of lists, as above, then a default of 8 is used.
+
+    The *info* parameter is a dictionary that can be used to specify
+    metadata (in the same style as the arguments to the
+    :class:``png.Writer`` class).  For this function the keys that are
+    useful are:
+    
+    height
+      overrides the height derived from the array dimensions and allows
+      *a* to be an iterable.
+    width
+      overrides the width derived from the array dimensions.
+    bitdepth
+      overrides the bit depth derived from the element datatype (but
+      must match *mode* if that also specifies a bit depth).
+
+    Generally anything specified in the
+    *info* dictionary will override any implicit choices that this
+    function would otherwise make, but must match any explicit ones.
+    For example, if the *info* dictionary has a ``greyscale`` key then
+    this must be true when mode is ``'L'`` or ``'LA'`` and false when
+    mode is ``'RGB'`` or ``'RGBA'``.

+# === Legacy Version Support ===
+
+# :pyver:old:  PyPNG works on Python versions 2.3 and 2.2, but not
+# without some awkward problems.  Really PyPNG works on Python 2.4 (and
+# above); it works on Pythons 2.3 and 2.2 by virtue of fixing up
+# problems here.  It's a bit ugly (which is why it's hidden down here).
+#
+# Generally the strategy is one of pretending that we're running on
+# Python 2.4 (or above), and patching up the library support on earlier
+# versions so that it looks enough like Python 2.4.  When it comes to
+# Python 2.2 there is one thing we cannot patch: extended slices
+# http://www.python.org/doc/2.3/whatsnew/section-slices.html.
+# Instead we simply declare that features that are implemented using
+# extended slices will not work on Python 2.2.
+#
+# In order to work on Python 2.3 we fix up a recurring annoyance involving
+# the array type.  In Python 2.3 an array cannot be initialised with an
+# array, and it cannot be extended with a list (or other sequence).
+# Both of those are repeated issues in the code.  Whilst I would not
+# normally tolerate this sort of behaviour, here we "shim" a replacement
+# for array into place (and hope no-ones notices).  You never read this.
+#
+# In an amusing case of warty hacks on top of warty hacks... the array
+# shimming we try and do only works on Python 2.3 and above (you can't
+# subclass array.array in Python 2.2).  So to get it working on Python
