I don't need the code, just to kown how does it work to develop the parts who will follow the call of quantiz in my programs.

Thank you for your great job, this API is very nice and useful!

RTM. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/quantize.php for a description of the color reduction algorithm.

Thank you

You may like to try to understand the source code too. Contributions and Patches are of course welcome.

Could you tell me if there is any function to get the value of the thresholds ?

Thank you
