PIL, as its name suggest, is an imaging library for python. I used PIL to get every pixel of an image as 2x2 array information. With that I could modify it with many possibilities; edge detection, black and white transformation, log transformation, creating watermark, etc.
{update: I install this PIL module on my OS X El Capitan too, :), and easier } Installing PIL is an easy task, if we have its prerequities installed. Just
download it and extract it and then install using this command
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:Imaging-1.1.7 nugroho$ python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
creating build
creating build/lib.macosx-10.6-intel-2.7
...
unable to execute gcc-4.2: No such file or directory

Oops, it is failed to install, it tell me that there is no gcc-4.2 on my machine, and that's true. I've modified my /usr/bin/gcc to point /usr/local/bin/gcc.
I have
gcc 4.2 from Xcode4.2, which actually llvm-gcc. My existing gcc is
gcc-4.6.2 so I cheated… I created symlink named gcc-4.2 on /usr/bin pointing /usr/local/bin/gcc
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:Imaging-1.1.7 nugroho$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
ln: /usr/bin/gcc-4.2: Permission denied
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:Imaging-1.1.7 nugroho$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:Imaging-1.1.7 nugroho$
Still error, :(
gcc-4.2: error: x86_64: No such file or directory
gcc-4.2: error: unrecognized option ‘-arch’

Hm, maybe if I'm linking /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 to /usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4-2; it's gcc-4.2 after all, if we ignore llvm (don't know what is it stand for). It doesn't hurt if I'm trying, so..

Wow, success
Well, no need gcc4.6.2 afterall, just create symbolic link of llvm-gcc-4.2 named gcc-4.2,:)
