input for imageColorSyncProfileData

[typemytype]

the input for the imageColorSyncProfileData could also be a .icc file next to an NSData object.

Creating a NSData object does feel very drawBotisch or pythonesk.

Creating a NSData object on the fly seems hard... see the spec for an .icc file http://www.color.org/specification/ICC1v43_2010-12.pdf

example .icc file

import AppKit

fill(1, 0, 0)
rect(20, 20, width()-40, height()-40)

data = AppKit.NSData.dataWithContentsOfFile_('path/to/AppleRGB.icc')

saveImage("test.tiff", imageColorSyncProfileData=data)

so a proposal: saveImage("test.tiff", imageColorSyncProfileData='path/to/AppleRGB.icc')

I agree nsdata is clumsy, but can a color profile influence the number of output color channels?

Never mind, I didn't read the original question properly.
