 `stp_vars_t' functions
 ======================
 
  - Data type: void * stp_vars_t
      This is an opaque data type, whose structure is not visible to the
      user.  This object contains all of the information about settings
      for a given printer, such as color (contrast, brightness), the
      type of printer, the dithering algorithm in use, and so forth.
      Please see the `stp_set_*' and `stp_get_*' functions below for the
      accessors and mutators for this data type.

  - Function: void stp_copy_vars (stp_vars_t VD, const stp_vars_t VS)
      Copy the settings from VS to VD.
 
  - Function: stp_vars_t stp_allocate_copy (const stp_vars_t VS)
      Allocate a new `stp_vars_t', copying settings from VS.
 
  - Function: void stp_free_vars (stp_vars_t VV)

  - Function: void stp_set_orientation (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the paper orientation for this print job.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_left (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_left (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the left margin (in 1/72 inch units, or "points") for
      this print job.

      for this print job.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_unit (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_unit (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the base unit (inches or centimeters) for this print
      job.  This is provided for front ends; the package itself uses
      points as its unit of measurement.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_page_width (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_page_width (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the width of the printed region of the page.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_page_height (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_page_height (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the height of the printed region of the page.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_input_color_model (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_input_color_model (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the color model (currently RGB or CMY) of the input to
      the driver.  Most front ends will use RGB input.
 
  - Function: int stp_get_output_color_model (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_output_color_model (stp_vars_t VV, int VAL)
      Get or set the color model (currently RGB or CMY) of the output of
      the driver.  Most printers will use CMY.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_scaling (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_scaling (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the scaling factor of the image.  If the scaling factor
      is greater than 0, it is interpreted as a percent (5.0-100.0 is
      the valid range) of the printable page region, using the more
      restrictive axis.  For example, if the image to be printed should
      be 3" (wide) x 2" (high), and the printable page region is
      8"x10.5", the scale factor should be 37.5 (3"/8").
 
      If the scaling is less than zero, it is interpreted as pixels per
      inch.
 
      It is likely that in the future this will be migrated into the
      front end.  There is no particular reason why the driver needs to
      know about this.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_gamma (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_gamma (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the gamma of the print job (valid range: 0.1-4.0;
      default 1.0).  Note that this is not the absolute gamma used by
      the print job; it is scaled by the gamma appropriate for the
      printer.  This is true for all of the numerical parameters.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_brightness (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_brightness (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the brightness of the print job (valid range: 0.0-2.0;
      default: 1.0).  Any value other than 1.0 will result in some
      possible values not being used; if brightness is less than 1.0, no
      output point will be pure white, and if brightness is greater than
      1.0, no output point will be pure black (or cyan, or magenta, or
      yellow).
 
  - Function: float stp_get_contrast (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_contrast (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the contrast of the print job (valid range: 0.0-4.0;
      default: 1.0).  Values less than 1.0 will result in pure white or
      black not being used (0.0 will make the entire image 50% gray).
      Values greater than 1.0 do not hard clip; while the contrast in the
      midtones increases, it only asymptotically approaches the limits.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_cyan (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_cyan (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the cyan adjustment of the print job (range: 0.0-4.0;
      default: 1.0).  This currently adjusts the gamma of the cyan
      curve.  It is scaled by the cyan adjustment for the printer model
      in question.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_magenta (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_magenta (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the magenta adjustment of the print job (range:
      0.0-4.0; default: 1.0).  This currently adjusts the gamma of the
      magenta curve.  It is scaled by the magenta adjustment for the
      printer model in question.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_yellow (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_yellow (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the yellow adjustment of the print job (range: 0.0-4.0;
      default: 1.0).  This currently adjusts the gamma of the yellow
      curve.  It is scaled by the yellow adjustment for the printer
      model in question.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_saturation (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_saturation (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the saturation of the print job (range: 0.0-9.0;
      default: 1.0).  Saturation of 0.0 produces grayscale output using
      composite (CMY or CMYK, as appropriate for the printer) color.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_density (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_density (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the density of the print job (range: 0.0-2.0; default:
      1.0).  This adjusts the amount of ink deposited in a linear fashion
      for all channels.  It is scaled by the density appropriate for the
      choice of printer, resolution, paper type, and other factors that
      the driver may deem appropriate.
 
  - Function: float stp_get_app_gamma (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_app_gamma (stp_vars_t VV, float VAL)
      Get or set the gamma of the input (i. e. what the driving
      application uses).
 
  - Function: void * stp_get_lut (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_lut (stp_vars_t VV, void *VAL)
      Get or set the color lookup table for the print job.  This is
      useful outside of the library for computing a preview of the
      printed result.  The lookup table itself should be treated as an
      opaque handle.
 
  - Function: unsigned char * stp_get_cmap (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_cmap (stp_vars_t VV, unsigned char *VAL)
      Get or set the color map for the print job.  This is a table of
      R,G,B values for 8-bit indexed input.  This may be moved outside
      of the library in the future; in this case, the front end would be
      required to do its own mapping and supply true-color RGB to the
      driver.
 
    The following methods are used to perform output and error reporting
 by the driver.  The driver supplies a stream of output bytes; the front
 end is responsible for providing methods that accept this output and
 handle it appropriately.
 
  - Function: stp_outfunc_t stp_get_outfunc (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_outfunc (const stp_vars_t VV, stp_outfunc_t
           VAL)
  - Function: void * stp_get_outdata (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_outdata (stp_vars_t VV, void *VAL)
       - Data type:  stp_outfunc_t
                typedef void (*stp_outfunc_t) (void *data,
                              const char *buffer, size_t bytes);
      Get or set the output function the driver will use.  The
      front end must supply a suitable function for accepting the output
      data.  The `stp_set_outdata' method provides a way of passing an
      appropriate object to the output function.
 
  - Function: stp_outfunc_t stp_get_errfunc (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_errfunc (const stp_vars_t VV, stp_outfunc_t
           VAL)
  - Function: void * stp_get_errdata (const stp_vars_t VV)
  - Function: void stp_set_errdata (stp_vars_t VV, void *VAL)
      Get or set the error reporting function that the driver will use.
      This is used to report errors or debugging information, and must be
      supplied.  A typical errfunc will simply print whatever it's
      passed to stderr.

 hue  * from (0..6) to (0..6) in increments of .125.  The hue_map is in
 CMY space,  * so hue=0 is cyan.   */ typedef void
 (*stp_convert_t)(const stp_vars_t vars, const unsigned char *in,
                       unsigned short *out, int *zero_mask,
                  int width, int bpp, const unsigned char *cmap,
                       const double *hue_map, const double *lum_map,
                           const double *sat_map);
 
  - Function: void stp_merge_printvars (stp_vars_t USER, const
           stp_vars_t PRINT)
 
  - Function: void stp_allocate_lut (stp_vars_t V, size_t STEPS)
 
  - Function: void stp_free_lut (stp_vars_t V)
 
  - Function: void stp_compute_lut (stp_vars_t V, size_t STEPS)
