%  GetAuthenticPixels() obtains a pixel region for read/write access. If the
%  region is successfully accessed, a pointer to a Quantum array
%  representing the region is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.
%
%  The returned pointer may point to a temporary working copy of the pixels
%  or it may point to the original pixels in memory. Performance is maximized
%  if the selected region is part of one row, or one or more full rows, since
%  then there is opportunity to access the pixels in-place (without a copy)
%  if the image is in memory, or in a memory-mapped file. The returned pointer
%  must *never* be deallocated by the user.
%
%  Pixels accessed via the returned pointer represent a simple array of type
%  Quantum.  If the image has corresponding metacontent,call
%  GetAuthenticMetacontent() after invoking GetAuthenticPixels() to obtain the
%  meta-content corresponding to the region.  Once the Quantum array has
%  been updated, the changes must be saved back to the underlying image using
%  SyncAuthenticPixels() or they may be lost.

%  GetVirtualPixels() returns an immutable pixel region. If the
%  region is successfully accessed, a pointer to it is returned, otherwise
%  NULL is returned.  The returned pointer may point to a temporary working
%  copy of the pixels or it may point to the original pixels in memory.
%  Performance is maximized if the selected region is part of one row, or one
%  or more full rows, since there is opportunity to access the pixels in-place
%  (without a copy) if the image is in memory, or in a memory-mapped file.  The
%  returned pointer must *never* be deallocated by the user.
%
%  Pixels accessed via the returned pointer represent a simple array of type
%  Quantum.  If the image type is CMYK or the storage class is PseudoClass,
%  call GetAuthenticMetacontent() after invoking GetAuthenticPixels() to
%  access the meta-content (of type void) corresponding to the the
%  region.
%
%  If you plan to modify the pixels, use GetAuthenticPixels() instead.
%
%  Note, the GetVirtualPixels() and GetAuthenticPixels() methods are not thread-
%  safe.  In a threaded environment, use GetCacheViewVirtualPixels() or
%  GetCacheViewAuthenticPixels() instead.
%
%  The format of the GetVirtualPixels() method is:
%
%      const Quantum *GetVirtualPixels(const Image *image,const ssize_t x,
%        const ssize_t y,const size_t columns,const size_t rows,

%  QueueAuthenticPixels() queues a mutable pixel region.  If the region is
%  successfully initialized a pointer to a Quantum array representing the
%  region is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.  The returned pointer may
%  point to a temporary working buffer for the pixels or it may point to the
%  final location of the pixels in memory.
%
%  Write-only access means that any existing pixel values corresponding to
%  the region are ignored.  This is useful if the initial image is being
%  created from scratch, or if the existing pixel values are to be
%  completely replaced without need to refer to their pre-existing values.
%  The application is free to read and write the pixel buffer returned by
%  QueueAuthenticPixels() any way it pleases. QueueAuthenticPixels() does not
%  initialize the pixel array values. Initializing pixel array values is the
%  application's responsibility.
%
%  Performance is maximized if the selected region is part of one row, or
%  one or more full rows, since then there is opportunity to access the
%  pixels in-place (without a copy) if the image is in memory, or in a
%  memory-mapped file. The returned pointer must *never* be deallocated
%  by the user.
%
%  Pixels accessed via the returned pointer represent a simple array of type
%  Quantum. If the image type is CMYK or the storage class is PseudoClass,
%  call GetAuthenticMetacontent() after invoking GetAuthenticPixels() to
%  obtain the meta-content (of type void) corresponding to the region.
%  Once the Quantum (and/or Quantum) array has been updated, the
%  changes must be saved back to the underlying image using
%  SyncAuthenticPixels() or they may be lost.
%
%  The format of the QueueAuthenticPixels() method is:
%
%      Quantum *QueueAuthenticPixels(Image *image,const ssize_t x,
%        const ssize_t y,const size_t columns,const size_t rows,
