+Pngcrush is an optimizer for PNG (Portable Network Graphics) files.
+It can be run from a commandline in an MSDOS window, or from a UNIX or
+LINUX commandline. Its main purpose is to reduce the size of the PNG IDAT
+datastream by trying various compression levels and PNG filter methods.
+It also can be used to remove unwanted ancillary chunks, or to add
+certain chunks including gAMA, tRNS, iCCP, and textual chunks.
