I would like to load 32-bit images (RGB+alpha) for use with GLUT/OpenGL.
I know GTK2HS has support for loading images, but does a standalone Haskell (wrapper) module exists for loading images?
PNG or TGA would be enough for me.
The Imlib2 binding (called Imlib-0.1.0) on Hackage provides the necessary tools to load and manipulate images in a variety of formats including PNG, but it's under-documented and a little rough and untested. I'm currently working on a new version with proper documentation, a number of bugfixes, and a somewhat more Haskellish interface. - Cale
