Decker 1.51

Decker 1.51 offers several minor usability enhancements and new/revised examples.

Fixes:

• The "Show Animation" toggle was not correctly implemented in Web-Decker.
• Clarified and corrected usage/installation instructions for the "pt" module.

New Features:

• The "Link..." dialog box now offers an (optional) visual card picker to remove the need to memorize or manually look up target card names.
• Importing images via drag-and-drop or "File -> Import Image" now respects the "Style -> Color" setting. In Color mode, images will be converted to best-effort posterized 16 colors; for best results consider first using an external tool to dither color images with respect to an appropriate palette. The "All About Color" deck (see below) provides details.

Modules:

• The new example deck "All About Color" describes and clarifies the many features and foibles of Decker's paletted graphics capabilities, and also includes the module "col", which provides handy conversion functions between several popular color representations (RGB, HSV, Hex, and CSS color formats).
• The "plot" module has been revised to v2.0 with overhauled documentation, support for styling and windowing plots, pie charts, and utility functions plot.pivot[] and plot.unpivot[] to simplify preparing data for plots or reports.
