The main purpose of this utility is to recompress png
19
files to get the smallest possible size.
21
Please note that this utility is not able to read
22
a generic file. It's granted to be able to read only
23
the files generated by the AdvanceMAME emulator.
25
To compress the files this utility uses the following
28
* Remove all ancillary chunks.
29
* Concatenate all the IDAT chunks.
30
* Use the 7zip Deflate implementation.
37
List the content of the specified files.
39
-z, --recompress FILES...
40
Recompress the specified files. If the -1, -2, -3
41
options are specified it's used the smallest file
42
choice from the previous compressed data and the
43
new compression. If the -0 option is specified the
44
file is always rewritten without any compression.
47
Disable the compression. The file is
48
only stored and not compressed. The file is always
49
rewritten also if it's bigger.
52
Set the compression level to "fast".
55
Set the compression level to "normal". This is the
56
default level of compression.
59
Set the compression level to "extra".
62
Set the compression level to "insane".
65
Force the use of the new file also if it's bigger.
