NAME
       Imager::Handy - simple access to common functions

SYNOPSIS
	 use Imager ':handy';
	 my $color = NC(255, 0, 0);
	 my $font = NF(1.0, 0, 0);

DESCRIPTION
       If you use Imager with the ":handy" import tag, it will export a number of functions that can shorter your code.

       NC()
       newcolor()
       newcolour()
	   Create a new Imager::Color object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.

	     my $color = NC('red');

       NF()
       newfont()
	   Create a new Imager::Font object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.

	     my $font = NF(file => 'foo.ttf');

       NCF()
	   Create a new Imager::Color::Float object, supplying any parameters to the new() method.

	     my $colorf = NCF(1.0, 0, 0);

BUGS
       NC() can be mostly replaced by supplying the color name or other description directly to the drawing method.
