WebP codec is a library to encode and decode images in WebP format. This package
|
|
contains the library that can be used in other programs to add WebP support, as
|
|
well as the command line tools 'cwebp' and 'dwebp' to compress and decompress
|
|
images respectively.
|
|
|
|
See https://developers.google.com/speed/webp for details on the image format.
