.Dt FARBFELD 5
.Os suckless.org
.Sh NAME
.Nm farbfeld
.Nd suckless image format
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is a
.Em lossless
image format which is easy to parse, pipe and compress.
It has the following format:
.Bd -literal -offset left
BYTES DESCRIPTION
8 "farbfeld" magic value
4 32-Bit BE unsigned integer (width)
4 32-Bit BE unsigned integer (height)
[2222] 4*16-Bit BE unsigned integers [RGBA] / pixel, row-major
.Ed
.Pp
The RGB-data should be sRGB for best interoperability and not
alpha-premultiplied.
.Sh USAGE
.Nm
provides the tools
.Xr 2ff 1 ,
.Xr jpg2ff 1 ,
.Xr png2ff 1
and
.Xr ff2jpg 1 ,
.Xr ff2pam 1 ,
.Xr ff2png 1 ,
.Xr ff2ppm 1
to
.Em convert
to and from farbfeld images respectively.
.Pp
.Xr bzip2 1
is recommended for
.Em compression ,
giving results comparable with PNG for photographs and much better results
for other image types.
.sp
The
.Em file extension
is ".ff" and compression extensions shall be
appended (e.g. ".ff.bz2").
.Sh MOTIVATION
.Nm
was created because the author was not satisfied with the boilerplate
and inherent complexity involved in handling common image formats
(PNG, JPEG, GIF,...), having to rely on bloated libraries while not being
able to focus on the task at hand for a given image processing problem.
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following code listing
.Em invert.c
is a ready-to-use color inverter with all necessary error handling and
reporting. This program can be integrated into a farbfeld pipeline as
follows:
.Pp
$ png2ff < image.png | invert | ff2png > image-inverted.png
.Pp
It shall be noted here that due to the simplicity of the format no
external libraries are needed to handle the farbfeld image data. The
0BSD-License gives you the freedom to throw away the license block and
just use the code as you wish. Happy hacking!
