+ Tioga 1.18 brings in a few new features. First, Dvector.fancy_read
+is now able to extract pure text columns. Second, a jpg_info function
+has been added that read the width and height from within a JPEG file,
+for use with show_image: you now don't have to know the image size
+beforehand. A load_png function was added that relies on pdflatex to
+read PNG files (except those with a custom palette). Feed the return
+value of load_png to show_image. It is now possible to reuse an image
+over and over again by saving its reference and using itagain.Finally,
+more control over the number of pdflatex executions is now available.
+There are also a couple of bug fixes.
