The upstream sources have been untouched for seven years. Its exists function made me cross. It didn't handle Unix pipes. Heck, it didn't even compile. I saw that some people from /g/ got it working, but it feels rough.

1. Dependencies:

• libgd

2. Run make.
3. Install using make install or manually.

• -h is help.
• -v is verbose
• -o is the file output. Use - for stdout.
• -w sets the image width.
• -e is encode; -d is decode.
• -b sets the banner at the bottom of the image.
• file can be - for stdin.

Usage:

$ s2png -h
s2png "something to png" version 0.02
usage: s2png [-h] [-v] [-o filename] [-w width (600)] [-e (default) | -d] [-b banner] file

Create s2png-yotsuba-edition.tar.xz.png:

$ s2png s2png-yotsuba-edition.tar.xz

Compress greentexts.txt using xz and create greentexts.txt.xz.png with banner ">tfw all my greentexts are not green":

$ xz -c greentexts.txt | s2png -ve -b '>tfw all my greentexts are not green' -o greentexts.txt.xz.png -
- -> greentexts.txt.xz.png
Mode:   Encode
