SNG (Scriptable Network Graphics) is a minilanguage designed specifically to represent the entire contents of a PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file in an editable form. Thus, SNGs representing elaborate graphics images and ancillary chunk data can be readily generated or modified using only text tools.
SNG is implemented by a compiler/decompiler called sng that losslessly translates between SNG and PNG.
The current version is 1.0.1. This is a production release, and has been tested on all 155 of the non-broken images in the png test suite.
Downloads are available from SNG's SourceForge page.
Note: To use sng, you will need to install libpng-1.0.9beta7 or later. You can download it here).
