Pycairo

------------------

General changes:
Pycairo 1.4.0 requires cairo 1.4.0 (or later).

New methods:
| Context.clip_extents
| Context.copy_clip_rectangles
| Context.get_dash
| Context.get_dash_count
| Context.get_scaled_font
| Context.glyph_extents
| Context.glyph_path
| Context.show_glyphs
| LinearGradient.get_linear_points
| RadialGradient.get_radial_circles
| SolidPattern.get_rgba
| SurfacePattern.get_surface

Deleted methods:
ImageSurface.create_for_array
Remove Numeric Python support, since Numeric has been made obsolete by
numpy, and numpy data can be read using ImageSurface.create_for_data.

Other changes:
the module cairo.gtk has been removed (pygtk 2.7.0 onwards has cairo
support built in).

------------------

* Pycairo 1.2.6 requires cairo 1.2.6 (or later).
* mingw32 compiler fixes (Cedric Gustin)
* setup.py improvements (Cedric Gustin)
* ImageSurface.get_data() new method added
ImageSurface.get_data_as_rgba() method removed

------------------

* Pycairo requires cairo 1.2.2 (or later).
* setup.py has been updated to allow installation by executing
$ python setup.py install
* examples/cairo_snippets/snippets/gradient_mask.py
A new example to demonstrate pattern masks.
* The cairo.svg module has been removed because:

1) Cairo does not include SVG parsing, so this module does not belong
in pycairo.
2) libsvg-cairo (the underlying C library) is unmaintained.

------------------

Updated functions:
ctx.set_source_rgba (r, g, b, a=1.0) now supports a default alpha argument

Other changes:
cairo.Matrix now supports the Python sequence protocol, so you can do:
xx, yx, xy, yy, x0, y0 = matrix
