 API Additions
 =============
 
 ImageOps.colorize
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-Previously ``ImageOps.colorize`` only supported two-color mapping with 
-``black`` and ``white`` arguments being mapped to 0 and 255 respectively. 
-Now it supports three-color mapping with the optional ``mid`` parameter, and 
-the positions for all three color arguments can each be optionally specified 
-(``blackpoint``, ``whitepoint`` and ``midpoint``). 
+Previously ``ImageOps.colorize`` only supported two-color mapping with
+``black`` and ``white`` arguments being mapped to 0 and 255 respectively.
+Now it supports three-color mapping with the optional ``mid`` parameter, and
+the positions for all three color arguments can each be optionally specified
+(``blackpoint``, ``whitepoint`` and ``midpoint``).
 For example, with all optional arguments::
 	ImageOps.colorize(im, black=(32, 37, 79), white='white', mid=(59, 101, 175),
                           blackpoint=15, whitepoint=240, midpoint=100)
