Trimage Or Any Image Compresser Coming?

Post#1 by jimwg » 26 Jan 2014, 13:40

Greetings!

I heard that TinyPNG and Trimage can do a bang-up job compressing PNG and Tiff files. Is there any such adaptation coming around for Porteus?

Thanks!

Trimage has additional dependencies, of which Python and QT may be avail via PPM. The rest can easily be found on http://pkgs.org/

Fetch any other of the pre-compiled archives, drop-in what's missing, and you're good to build a native mod.

Anyway, what's wrong with Gimp compression? Never gave me reason for yet another gimmick.
Thanks for that swift reply! I'd use the GIMP PNG compresser if it did the job Tiny PNG does! Wish there was a plug-in for that!
