README - Yet Another Gradient Editor (YAGE) Version 0.1

WHAT IS YAGE?

  YAGE is a simple gradient editor, similar in functionality to the ones found
  in many graphics programs, it's purpose is to have a simple and fast tool for
  editing and converting between gradient formats.

  It was originally created to simplify the creation and editing of color
  gradients for the VU scientific visualization program instead of doing it by
  hand.

  YAGE supports also the GIMP gradient formats
