This is MorphOS port of libmng. It is based on libmng 1.0.10 (13th July 2007).
System requirements
-------------------
* MorphOS 2 or MorphOS 1 with Update Pack v1.0
* littlecms.library V3
Version history
---------------
mng.library version 2.0:
* fixed bug in library startup code
* now requires littlecms.library V3 as minimum
mng.library version 1.1:
* fixed bug in auto-open libraries (developers only)
* optimised library code
mng.library version 1.0:
* first public release
MNG features:
* object or sprite-based approach to animation, with commands to move, copy
and paste images (rather than replicate them as in GIF)
* nested loops for complex animations
* way better compression than GIF animations
* support for difference (or "delta") images for still better compression
* integration of both PNG and JPEG-based ("JNG") images
* support for transparent JPEG images
* low-complexity and very low-complexity subsets for simpler implementation
MNG shares a number of PNG's features:
* ultra-clever magic signature that can detect the most common types of file corruption
* non-patented compression, either completely lossless (PNG) or lossy (JPEG)
* full alpha support (multi-level transparency) for all image objects
* gamma and color correction for cross-platform consistency
* ability to store copyright and other textual info, either compressed or uncompressed
