Subject: incorrect docs re: arc start point.

Hi, just to say, I really like your graphics lib, and I appreciate your providing it. That being said, there is an error in the docs I thought you might like to fix. docs state: *$image->arc($cx,$cy,$width,$height,$start,$end,$color)* *...* Zero is at the top of the ellipse, and angles increase clockwise ... Actual tests show that zero is at the right extreme of the circle origin, not the top, with angles increasing clockwise as stated. -- Andrew Gray Devops Engineer. *We live at a time when emotions and feelings count more than truth,and there is a vast ignorance of science.* James Lovelock
