gdk-pixbuf-csource - C code generation utility for GdkPixbuf images
gdk-pixbuf-csource [OPTION...] [IMAGE] gdk-pixbuf-csource [OPTION...] --build-list [[NAME] [IMAGE]...]
gdk-pixbuf-csource is a small utility that generates C code containing images, useful for compiling images directly into programs. gdk-pixbuf-csource either takes as input one image file name to generate code for, or, using the --build-list option, a list of (name, image) pairs to generate code for a list of images into named variables.
--stream Generate pixbuf data stream (a single string containing a serialized GdkPixdata structure in network byte order). --struct Generate GdkPixdata structure (needs the GdkPixdata structure definition from gdk-pixdata.h). --macros Generate *_ROWSTRIDE, *_WIDTH, *_HEIGHT, *_BYTES_PER_PIXEL and *_RLE_PIXEL_DATA or *_PIXEL_DATA macro definitions for the image. --rle Enables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data (default). --raw Disables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data. --extern Generate extern symbols. --static Generate static symbols (default). --decoder Provide a *_RUN_LENGTH_DECODE(image_buf, rle_data, size, bpp) macro definition to decode run-length encoded image data. --name=identifier Specifies the identifier name (prefix) for the generated variables or macros (useful only if --build-list was not specified). --build-list Enables (name, image) pair parsing mode. -h, --help Print brief help and exit. -v, --version Print version and exit. --g-fatal-warnings Make warnings fatal (causes the program to abort).
The GdkPixbuf documentation, shipped with the Gtk+ distribution, available from www.gtk.org[1].
The runlength encoder gets out of sync with the pixel boundaries, since it includes the rowstride padding in the encoded stream. Furthermore, it generates pixbufs with suboptimal rowstride in some cases.

Personal Opportunity - Free software gives you access to billions of dollars of software at no cost. Use this software for your business, personal use or to develop a profitable skill. Access to source code provides access to a level of capabilities/information that companies protect though copyrights. Open source is a core component of the Internet and it is available to you. Leverage the billions of dollars in resources and capabilities to build a career, establish a business or change the world. The potential is endless for those who understand the opportunity.
Business Opportunity - Goldman Sachs, IBM and countless large corporations are leveraging open source to reduce costs, develop products and increase their bottom lines. Learn what these companies know about open source and how open source can give you the advantage.
Free Software provides computer programs and capabilities at no cost but more importantly, it provides the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The importance of free software is a matter of access, not price. Software at no cost is a benefit but ownership rights to the software and source code is far more significant.
Free Office Software - The Libre Office suite provides top desktop productivity tools for free. This includes, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation engine, drawing and flowcharting, database and math applications. Libre Office is available for Linux or Windows.
The Free Books Library is a collection of thousands of the most popular public domain books in an online readable format. The collection includes great classical literature and more recent works where the U.S. copyright has expired. These books are yours to read and use without restrictions.
Source Code - Want to change a program or know how it works? Open Source provides the source code for its programs so that anyone can use, modify or learn how to write those programs themselves. Visit the GNU source code repositories to download the source.
Study at Harvard, Stanford or MIT - Open edX provides free online courses from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, UC Berkeley and other top Universities. Hundreds of courses for almost all major subjects and course levels. Open edx also offers some paid courses and selected certifications.
Linux Manual Pages - A man or manual page is a form of software documentation found on Linux/Unix operating systems. Topics covered include computer programs (including library and system calls), formal standards and conventions, and even abstract concepts.
