Or if you need to get to the non-image parts of a PNG, the tool
'sng' converts a PNG into a simple textual format that preserves
all the chunks in the PNG and is easy to parse.  The tool can also
regenerate a PNG from the same textual format.  It's available at
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/sng>.

No,  John.  I want formats that are actually useful, rather than over-
featured megaliths that address all questions by piling on ridiculous
internal links in forms which are hideously over-complex.
