NAME

     farbfeld — suckless image format

DESCRIPTION

     farbfeld is a lossless image format which is easy to parse, pipe and compress.  It has the
     following format:

     BYTES    DESCRIPTION
     8        "farbfeld" magic value
     4        32-Bit BE unsigned integer (width)
     4        32-Bit BE unsigned integer (height)
     [2222]   4*16-Bit BE unsigned integers [RGBA] / pixel, row-major

     The RGB-data should be sRGB for best interoperability and not alpha-premultiplied.

USAGE

     farbfeld provides the tools 2ff(1), jpg2ff(1), png2ff(1) and ff2jpg(1), ff2pam(1),
     ff2png(1), ff2ppm(1) to convert to and from farbfeld images respectively.

     bzip2(1) is recommended for compression, giving results comparable with PNG for photographs
     and much better results for other image types.

     The file extension is ".ff" and compression extensions shall be appended (e.g. ".ff.bz2").

MOTIVATION

     farbfeld was created because the author was not satisfied with the boilerplate and inherent
     complexity involved in handling common image formats (PNG, JPEG, GIF,...), having to rely on
     bloated libraries while not being able to focus on the task at hand for a given image
     processing problem.

EXAMPLES

     The following code listing invert.c is a ready-to-use color inverter with all necessary
     error handling and reporting. This program can be integrated into a farbfeld pipeline as
     follows:

     $ png2ff < image.png | invert | ff2png > image-inverted.png

     It shall be noted here that due to the simplicity of the format no external libraries are
     needed to handle the farbfeld image data. The 0BSD-License gives you the freedom to throw
     away the license block and just use the code as you wish. Happy hacking!
