RLE_PUTROW(3)

NAME
rle_putrow - Write a row (scanline) of data to an RLE file.

SYNOPSIS
#include <rle.h>

void rle_putrow( rows, length, the_hdr );
rle_pixel ** rows;
int length;
rle_hdr * the_hdr;

DESCRIPTION
Rle_putrow is called for each output scanline when creating an RLE(5) image. Rows is an array of pointers to the pixel data for the color components of the scanline. Rows should have the_hdr→ncolors elements. If an alpha channel is being saved, rows[-1] should point to the alpha channel data. Length is the number of pixels in the scanline. Rows[i] should point to the the_hdr→xmin element of the scanline. The function rle_row_alloc(3) will properly allocate memory for use by rle_putrow.

BUGS
Having the scanline indexed from xmin is an incredible botch. Its origin lies in the deep dark history of the raster toolkit, and it seems it's too late to change it now.
