## Manage supported image formats.
##
## @var{formats} is a structure with information about each supported file
## format, or from a specific format @var{ext}, the value displayed on the
## field @code{ext}.  It contains the following fields:
##
## @table @asis
## @item ext
## The name of the file format.  This may match the file extension but Octave
## will automatically detect the file format.
##
## @item description
## A long description of the file format.
##
## @item @nospell{isa}
## A function handle to confirm if a file is of the specified format.
##
## @item write
## A function handle to write if a file is of the specified format.
##
## @item read
## A function handle to open files the specified format.
##
## @item info
## A function handle to obtain image information of the specified format.
##
## @item alpha
## Logical value if format supports alpha channel (transparency or matte).
##
## @item multipage
## Logical value if format supports multipage (multiple images per file).
## @end table
##
## It is possible to change the way Octave manages file formats with the options
## @code{"add"}, @code{"remove"}, and @code{"update"}, and supplying a
## structure @var{format} with the required fields.  The option
## @code{"factory"} resets the configuration to the default.
##
## This can be used by Octave packages to extend the image reading capabilities
## Octave, through use of the PKG_ADD and PKG_DEL commands.

  ## The available formats are dependent on what the user has installed at
  ## a given time, and how GraphicsMagick was built. Checking for
  ## GraphicsMagick features when building Octave is not enough since it
  ## delegates some of them to external programs which can be removed or
  ## installed at any time.
  ## The recommended method would be to use CoderInfoList() to get a list of
  ## all available coders and try to write and read back a small test image.
  ## But this will not work since some coders are readable or writable only.
  ## It will still fail if we test only the ones marked as readable and
  ## writable because some RW coders are not of image formats (NULL, 8BIM,
  ## or EXIF for example).
  ## So we'd need a blacklist (unacceptable because a `bad' coder may be
  ## added later) or a whitelist. A whitelist means that even with a
  ## super-fancy recent build of GraphicsMagick, some formats won't be listed
  ## by imformats but in truth, we will still be able to read and write them
  ## since imread() and imwrite() will give it a try anyway.

  ##      Building the formats info
  ##
  ## As mentioned above we start with a whitelist of coders. Since the
  ## GraphicsMagick build may be missing some coders, we will remove those
  ## from the list. Some info can be obtained directly from GraphicsMagick
  ## through the CoderInfo object. However, some will need to be hardcoded.
  ##
  ## The association between file extensions and coders needs to be done
  ## with a manually coded list (file extensions do not define the image
  ## format and GraphicsMagick will not be fooled by changing the extension).
  ##
  ## We can get the read, write, description and multipage fields from
  ## CoderInfo in C++. We should do the same for alpha (GraphicsMagick
  ## calls it matte) but it's not available from CoderInfo. The only way to
  ## check it is to create a sample image with each coder, then try to read
  ## it back with GraphicsMagick and use the matte method on the Image class.
  ## But making such test for each Octave session... meh! While technically
  ## it may be possible that the same coder has different support for alpha
  ## channel in different versions and builds, this doesn't seem to happen.
  ## So we also hardcode those. In the future, maybe the CoderInfo class will
  ## have a matte method like it does for multipage.
  ##
  ## Other notes: some formats have more than one coder that do the same. For
  ## example, for jpeg images there is both the JPG and JPEG coders. However,
  ## it seems that when reading images, GraphicsMagick only uses one of them
  ## and that's the one we list (it's the one reported by imfinfo and that we
  ## can use for isa). However, in some cases GraphicsMagick seems to rely
  ## uniquely on the file extension ((JBIG and JBG at least. Create an image
  ## with each of those coders, swap their extension and it will report the
  ## other coder). We don't have such cases on the whitelist but if we did, we
  ## would need two entries for such cases.
