October 19, 2005
	After the long break I have finally prepared update of the FreeImage Wrapper. Now, I think, updates must became more regular. As usual the wrapper was updated for the last FreeImage version (FreeImage 3.8.0). Also this release brings Delphi 5 support. Click here to download the wrapper.

This functions and types can be used for direct work with library. And second, "FreeBitmap.pas" unit contains several classes which are incapsulates FreeImage data types, such as FIBITMAP, FIMULTIBITMAP, FITAG. This classes helps to organize work with library.
