I'm searching for an algorithm to scale arbitrary bitmaps  by  arbitrary
scale  factors  (e.g.  0.26,  1.7, 13, etc.). I've seen some pretty good
results with FrameMaker on SUNS, but as  I  need  it  to  operate  in  a
program  of  mine  that is of no use.  The best is a C-function that can
scale SUN PixRects, but a description of a good algorithm or a reference
to a publication would be of great help as well.
