RLE_PUT_SETUP(3)      DragonFly Library Functions Manual      RLE_PUT_SETUP(3)


NAME

       rle_put_setup - setup to create an RLE file.
       rle_put_init - setup for writing to an RLE file.


SYNOPSIS

       #include <rle.h>

       void rle_put_setup( the_hdr );
       rle_hdr * the_hdr;

       void rle_put_init( the_hdr );
       rle_hdr * the_hdr;


DESCRIPTION

       Rle_put_setup is called to initialize the output and write the image
       header of an RLE(5) image.  The argument is a pointer to a rle_hdr(3)
       structure, which has been filled in with appropriate values for the
       image being saved.

       Rle_put_init is called to initialize the header data structure for
       writing output to an RLE file.  The argument is a pointer to a
       rle_hdr(3) structure, which has been filled in with appropriate values
       for the image being saved.  The "private" elements of the header will
       be initialized.  The header is not written to the file.  This function
       could be useful for appending image data to an existing file.  The new
       data should have the same number channels, the same width, etc. as the
       existing image.
