In my program, I need ONLY to read an image and to transform it into such matrix.
Which graphics library can you recommend, if no other image manipulation operations are required?
These might help.. http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~ahey/HLibs/Multimedia.SDL.Core/ http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~ahey/HLibs/Multimedia.SDL.Image/
What you'll get is an SDL surface (C data structure), so you'll have to write some code to read it if you want a Haskell array.
We have a similar binding to Gdk's pixmap features in gtk2hs. I was thinking it would probably not be too hard to provide an instance of MArray for these bitmap C structures. That'd make it much easier to use and if we can do it right should be zero-copy (ie quick). Duncan
