Summary

Developer's Image Library (DevIL) is a programmer's library to develop

applications with very powerful image loading capabilities, yet is easy for a

developer to learn and use. Ultimate control of images is left to the

developer, so unnecessary conversions, etc. are not performed. DevIL utilizes

a simple, yet powerful, syntax. DevIL can load, save, convert, manipulate,

filter and display a wide variety of image formats.
