This is the README for Image::PNG version 0.22.
Image::PNG is a "module" for the Perl computer programming language, a library
of computer code to install on a computer. This document contains four
sections:
1. About - what the module does
2. Documentation - how to learn more about the module
3. Installation - how to install this module on a computer
4. Help - what to do if you get stuck
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ABOUT
Image::PNG - Read and write PNG files
Image::PNG is a layer on top of "Image::PNG::Libpng". Whereas
"Image::PNG::Libpng" copies the interface of the C library "libpng",
Image::PNG is intended to be a more intuitive way to handle PNG
images.
Please note that this module is not completed yet and is still under
development, so the interface may change. It's also open to
suggestions for improvements.
