Crate pcx

Expand description

Library for reading and writing PCX images.

Example of reading a PCX image:

let mut reader = pcx::Reader::from_file("test-data/marbles.pcx").unwrap();
println!("width = {}, height = {}, paletted = {}", reader.width(), reader.height(), reader.is_paletted());

let mut buffer = vec![0; reader.width() as usize * reader.height() as usize * 3];
reader.read_rgb_pixels(&mut buffer).unwrap();

Example of writing a PCX image:

// Create 5x5 RGB file.
let mut writer = pcx::WriterRgb::create_file("test.pcx", (5, 5), (300, 300)).unwrap();
for y in 0..5 {
    // Write 5 green pixels.
    writer.write_row(&[0, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0]);
}
writer.finish().unwrap();

This library does not implement its own error type, instead it uses std::io::Error. In the case of an invalid PCX file it will return an error with .kind() == ErrorKind::InvalidData.
