| rdjpgcom \- display text comments from a JPEG file |
| reads the named JPEG/JFIF file, or the standard input if no file is named, |
| and prints any text comments found in the file on the standard output. |
| The JPEG standard allows "comment" (COM) blocks to occur within a JPEG file. |
| Although the standard doesn't actually define what COM blocks are for, they |
| are widely used to hold user-supplied text strings. This lets you add |
| annotations, titles, index terms, etc to your JPEG files, and later retrieve |
| them as text. COM blocks do not interfere with the image stored in the JPEG |
| file. The maximum size of a COM block is 64K, but you can have as many of |
| them as you like in one JPEG file. |
| to also display the JPEG image dimensions. |
| Switch names may be abbreviated, and are not case sensitive. |
| does not depend on the IJG JPEG library. Its source code is intended as an |
| illustration of the minimum amount of code required to parse a JPEG file |
