#
# png2uri is a command-line application that creates an HTML "img" tag on
# standard output containing a data URI in accordance with RFC-2397, from
# a PNG file or from a PNG datastream received from standard input.
# Other formats besides the default, PNG, are supported, via the "-f or
# --format option or, if that option was not supplied, by inspection of the
# filename extension.
#
# Usage: png2uri [-f type|--format type] [-u|--uri_only] [file]
#
#        options: -f|--format TYPE: 
#                 write "image/TYPE" instead of "image/png" in the
#                 data uri.  TYPE can be png, jpg, jpeg, bmp, or gif,
#                 or any of those in upper case.  To write any other
#                 type, include the complete MIME type as in
#                 "--format image/x-jng" or "-f audio/mpeg".
#
#                 -u|--uri_only|--url_only
#                 omit the surrounding "img" tag and only write the
#                 data URI.
#
# Requires /bin/sh and a uuencode(1) that takes the "-m" option to mean
# to encode in base64 according to RFC-3548, and a working "sed".
#
# If you prefer a web-based converter or a java application, this isn't
# it. Use your search engine and look for "png data uri" to find one.
