      <p>
        NSBitmapImageRep is an image representation
        for handling images composed of pixels. The standard image
        format for NSBitmapImageRep is the TIFF format. However,
        through the use of image filters and other methods,
        many other standard image formats can be handled by
        NSBitmapImageRep. Images are typically
        handled through the NSImage class and there is often no
        need to use the NSBitmapImageRep class directly. However
        there may be cases where you want to manipulate the image
        bitmap data directly.

            <p>
              Initializes a newly created NSBitmapImageRep
              object to hold image data specified in the
              <var>planes</var> buffer and organized according to
              the additional arguments passed into the method.
            </p>
            <p>
              The <var>planes</var> argument is an array of
              <strong>char</strong> pointers where each array
              holds a single component or plane of data. Note
              that if data is passed into the method via
              <var>planes</var>, the data is NOT copied and not
              freed when the object is deallocated. It is assumed
              that the data will always be available. If
              <var>planes</var> is NULL, then a suitable amount
              of memory will be allocated to store the information
              needed. One can then obtain a pointer to the
              <var>planes</var> data using the
              <ref type="method" id="-bitmapData">
                -bitmapData
              </ref>
              or
              <ref type="method" id="-getBitmapDataPlanes:">
                -getBitmapDataPlanes:
              </ref>
              method.
            </p>
            <p>
              Each component of the data is in "standard" order,
              such as red, green, blue for RGB color images. The
              transparency component, if these is one,
              should always be last.
            </p>
            <p>
              The other arguments to the method consist of:

              </term>
              <desc>
                The <var>width</var> and <var>height</var> of the
                image in pixels
              </desc>
              <term>bps</term>
              <desc>
                The bits per sample or the number of bits used to
                store a number in one component of one pixel of
                the image. Typically this is 8 (bits) but can be 2
                or 4, although not all values are supported.
              </desc>
              <term>spp</term>
              <desc>
                Samples per pixel, or the number of components
                of color in the pixel. For instance this would be 4
                for an RGB image with transparency.
              </desc>
              <term><var>alpha</var></term>
              <desc>
                Set to <code>YES</code> if the image has a
                transparency component.
              </desc>
              <term><var>isPlanar</var></term>
              <desc>
                Set to <code>YES</code> if the data is arranged in
                <var>planes</var>, i.e. one component per buffer
                as stored in the <var>planes</var> array. If
                <code>NO</code>, then the image data is mixed in
                one buffer. For instance, for RGB data, the first
                sample would contain red, then next green, then
                blue, followed by red for the next pixel.
              </desc>
              <term><var>colorSpaceName</var></term>
              <desc>
                This argument specifies how the data values are to
                be interpreted. Possible values include the typical
                colorspace names (although not all values
                are currently supported)
              </desc>
              <term><var>rowBytes</var></term>
              <desc>
                Specifies the number of bytes contained in a
                single scan line of the data. Normally this can
                be computed from the <var>width</var> of the image,
                the samples per pixel and the bits per sample.
                However, if the data is aligned along word
                boundaries, this value may differ from
                this. If <var>rowBytes</var> is 0, the method
                will calculate the value assuming there are no
                extra bytes at the end of the scan line.
              </desc>
              <term><var>pixelBits</var></term>
              <desc>
                This is normally bps for planar data and bps times
                spp for non-planar data, but sometimes images have
                extra bits. If <var>pixelBits</var> is 0 it will
                be calculated as described above.
