/* example.c - an example of using libpng */

/* this is an example of how to use libpng to read and write
   png files.  The file libpng.txt is much more verbose then
   this.  If you have not read it, do so first.  This was
   designed to be a starting point of an implementation.
   This is not officially part of libpng, and therefore
   does not require a copyright notice.

   This file does not currently compile, because it is missing
   certain parts, like allocating memory to hold an image.
   You will have to supply these parts to get it to compile.
