\section{Image fields}

This section describes routines for creating a field object that
represents an image of a particular size, for getting a pointer to the
pixels for the image field, and querying the dimensions of the image
field.

An image field is a field with a regular grid of positions with unit
spacing, and a regular grid of quadrilateral connections.  These
routines simplify the task of creating and accessing such a field.

/**
\index{DXMakeImage}
Creates a new field object that represents an image of the specified
size.  Returns the image, or returns null and sets the error code to
indicate an error.

/**
\index{DXGetPixels}
Returns a pointer to the array of pixels associated with the image
field.  This is a pointer to the global memory array and can therefore
be modified.  Returns the pointer, or returns null and sets the error
code to indicate an error.

\index{DXGetImageSize}\index{DXGetImageBounds}
{\tt DXGetImageSize} returns the width and height of a simple image
field.  {\tt DXGetImageBounds} returns the the origin and dimensions of
a simple or composite image field (such as is generated by the Arrange
module).  Returns the image, or returns null and sets the error code
to indicate an error.

three bytes (red, green and blue) per pixel.  Returns {\tt i}, or
returns null and sets the error code to indicate an error.

\index{OutputFB}
Outputs an image {\tt i} to the frame buffer named by {\tt name} at the

returns null and sets the error code to indicate an error.

\index{DXDisplayX}
Creates an X window on the specified {\tt host} with the title
specified by {\tt window}, and displays the contents of the image
specified by {\tt i} in the window.  Returns {\tt i}, or returns null
and sets the error code to indicate an error.
