Free graphic file formats software for linux

g3d Graphic Tools project consists of a XML file format and generic development tools for games.
The problem is that often as a games developer you need to work with many 3d editing tools and rendering engines, and there should be an easy and portable way to move objects, levels, etc. around.
By having a common intermediate file format, you only need to write one exporter per tool and one importer per graphics engine. Also, you can develop generic tools which are not tied to any particular engine.
Enhancements:
- Added the skeleton object (beginnings of animation ;)
- Added asset management info in the file header (ie date, time, author, source, description)
- Fixed exporter bugs (3dsmax) relating to heiarchy stuff

File::Format::RIFF is a Perl module to Resource Interchange File Format/RIFF files.

SYNOPSIS

use File::Format::RIFF;

open( IN, file ) or die "Could not open file: $!";
my ( $riff1 ) = File::Format::RIFF->read( *IN );
close( IN );
$riff1->dump;

my ( $riff2 ) = new File::Format::RIFF( TYPE );
foreach my $chunk ( $riff1->data )
{
next if ( $chunk->id eq LIST );
$riff2->addChunk( $chunk->id, $chunk->data );
}
open( OUT, ">otherfile" ) or die "Could not open file: $!";
$riff2->write( *OUT );
close( OUT );

File::Format::RIFF provides an implementation of the Resource Interchange File Format. You can read, manipulate, and write RIFF files.

CONSTRUCTORS

$riff = new File::Format::RIFF( $type, $data );

Creates a new File::Format::RIFF object. $type is a four character code that identifies the type of this particular RIFF file. Certain types are defined to have a format, specifying which chunks must appear (e.g., WAVE files). If $type is not specified, it defaults to (four spaces). $data must be an array reference containing some number of RIFF lists and/or RIFF chunks. If $data is undef or not specified, then the new RIFF object is initialized empty.

$riff = File::Format::RIFF->read( $fh, $filesize );

Reads and parses an existing RIFF file from the given filehandle $fh. An exception will be thrown if the file is not a valid RIFF file. $filesize controls one aspect of the file format checking -- if $filesize is not specified, then stat will be called on $fh to determine how much data to expect. You may explicitly specify how much data to expect by passing in that value as $filesize. In either case, the amount of data read will be checked to make sure it matches the amount expected. Otherwise, it will throw an exception. If you do not wish it to make this check, pass in undef for $filesize.

Please note, if you wish to read an "in memory" filehandle, such as by doing this: open( $fh, read( $fh, $filesize );

The read constructor may also be used as a method. If used in this manner, then all existing data contained in $riff will be discarded, and replaced by the contents read from $fh.

$riff->write( $fh );

Outputs a properly-formatted RIFF file to the given filehandle $fh.

JpGraph makes it easy to draw both "quick and dirty" graphs with a minimum of code and complex professional graphs which requires a very fine grain control.
The library assigns context sensitive default values for most of the parameters which minimizes the learning curve. The features are there when you need it - they dont get in your way. The JpGraph library also comes wih very extensive documentation.
Main features:
- Web-friendly, average image size for a 300*200 image is around 2K and images are seldomly bigger than 4-5K
- Support for both GD1 and GD2 The library will autodetect which library is installed.
- Automatic generation of client side image maps to make it possible to generate drill-down graphs.
- Advanced interpolation with cubic splines to get smooth curves from just a few data points.

- Support for alpha blending
- has over 200+ built in Country flags
- Support automatic timing of images.
- Supports adding arbitrary lines and filled areas (with patterns) to plots
- Supports several plot types,spider-plots, pie-charts (both 2d and 3d) , scatter-plots, line-plots, filled line-plots, accumulated line-plots, bar plots, accumulated bar plots, grouped bar plots, error plots, line error plots, box plots, stock plots
- Supports advanced Gantt-charts (ex1, ex2)
- Flexible scales, supports text-lin, text-log, lin-lin, lin-log, log-lin and log-log
- Supports integer scale (labels are restricted to integers).
- Supports both PNG, GIF and JPG graphic formats. and can automatically choose the best available graphic format. Note that the available formats are dependent on the specific PHP installation where the library is used.
- Support various layout with a background image behind the plot
- Supports horizontal bar graphs
- Supports scientific plots
- More than 400 named colors
- Several possible axis positions
- Supports caching (with timeout) of generated graphs to lessen burden of a HTTP server.
- Intelligent autoscaling which gravitates towards aesthetical values.
- Fully supports manual scaling, with fine grain control of position of ticks
- Several different fill styles for line plots
- Supports up to two different y-scales, it is possible to have different left and right y-scale and add plots to both
- Supports unlimited number of plots in each graph, makes it easy to compose complex graph which consists of several plot types
- Designed as a flexible OO framework which makes it easy to add new types of plots
- Supports anti-aliasing of lines, more ...
- Supports color-gradient fill for bar graphs
- Supports automatic legend generation with user supplied format.
- Supports both vertical and horizontal grids (with image depth specification)
- Supports both on-the fly image generation and batch processing.
- Includes graph module to make it very easy to draw arbitrary shapes using custom scale on a canvas including Bezier-curves with full support for all the features of JpGraph (including caching and timeout).x
- Barcode generation The professional version includes a Barcode module that makes it easy to generate barcodes in all commonly used symbologies.
- Designed modularly - you dont have to include code which isnt used. JpGraph Architecture Block diagram
- extensive documentation with both a 150 pages tutorial and an extensive class reference.
- ... and many, many more features
Enhancements:
- This release follows the PHP4 version with functionality and defect fixes.
- 7x4 LED-like displays have been added.
- A long-standing issue with user-defined pie colors and legends has been fixed.
- There are various bugfixes.

Format on Save is a Eclipse plugin to automatically organizes imports and formats code when saving a Java editor.

This is the exact equivalent as doing Ctrl-Shift-O, Ctrl-Shift-F before saving. New features: - Sort Members and Correct Indentation - preference page to configure defaults

Gd is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a PNG or JPEG file. This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications, where PNG and JPEG are two of the formats accepted for inline images by most browsers.

In gd 1.0, it stood for "gif draw." After the Unisys patent on the LZW compression used in GIF came to light and GIF support was dropped, it did not officially stand for anything, but lets just say "graphics draw" and leave it at that. (GIF support is back, thanks to the expiration of the patent, but gd can draw much more than GIFs.)

This is a quick install guide:

1. Type ./configure
2. Type make install

GraphMonkey is a GTK#-based graphic calculator.

This software is written in C# with GTK#.The goal is to obtain a very simple and fast graphic calculator for mono. Its cross-platform: it works on GNU/Linux and Windows.
the software is under the gpl license.

Linux graphical bootsplash allows you to use custom graphics during early system startup. It makes it possible to place a nice graphic behind or above the kernel boot messages.
Linux graphical bootsplash hooks into the fbcon layer and, if activated, searches the initial ramdisk for a JPEG picture to show.
On any output operations to the console, it takes care of painting a margin around your text and a background picture behind the text with a set of special cfb functions.
Main features:
- Nice graphics (JPEG)
- Antialiased text rendering (TrueType)
- Animations (MNG)
- Progress Bar
- Display of boot messages above or below a graphic. ("verbose" and "silent" modes)
- Fully themeable
Enhancements:
- The bootsplash patch was updated to apply cleanly against Linux kernel 2.6.21.
