--- Manipulate raw audio data.

\item[imageop]
--- Manipulate raw image data.

\item[aifc]
--- Read and write audio files in AIFF or AIFC format.

\item[jpeg]
--- Read and write image files in compressed JPEG format.

\item[rgbimg]
--- Read and write image files in ``SGI RGB'' format (the module is
\emph{not} SGI specific though)!

\end{description}
