ruby193-rubygem-chunky_png - Pure ruby library for read/write, chunk-level access to PNG files

Website: http://wiki.github.com/wvanbergen/chunky_png
License: GPLv2+ or Ruby
Description:
This pure Ruby library can read and write PNG images without depending on
an external  image library, like RMagick. It tries to be memory efficient
and reasonably fast.
It supports reading and writing all PNG variants that are defined in the
specification,  with one limitation: only 8-bit color depth is supported.
It supports all transparency,  interlacing and filtering options the PNG
specifications allows. It can also read and  write textual metadata from
PNG files. Low-level read/write access to PNG chunks is also possible.
This library supports simple drawing on the image canvas and simple
operations like alpha composition and cropping. Finally, it can import
from and export to RMagick for  interoperability.
Also, have a look at OilyPNG at http://github.com/wvanbergen/oily_png.
OilyPNG is a  drop in mixin module that implements some of the ChunkyPNG
algorithms in C, which  provides a massive speed boost to encoding and decoding.
