This Perl extention allows you to extract meta information from various types of image files. In this release the following file formats are supported: JPEG (plain JFIF and Exif) PNG GIF PBM/PGM/PPM SVG XBM/XPM BMP/DIB/RLE Usage is something like this: use Image::Info qw(image_info); @info = image_info("filename"); $refto_hash_describing_1st_image = $info[0]; $refto_hash_describing_2nd_image = $info[1]; TODO: - add support for more image formats - Image::TIFF should not need to slurp Copyright 1999-2004 Gisle Aas.
