Ultimate control of images is +left to the developer, so unnecessary conversions, etc. are not performed. +DevIL utilizes a simple, yet powerful, syntax. DevIL can load, save, convert, +manipulate, filter and display a wide variety of image formats. + +Currently, DevIL can load .bmp, .cut, .dds, .doom, .gif, .ico, .jpg, .lbm, +.mdl, .mng, .pal, .pbm, .pcd, .pcx, .pgm, .pic, .png, .ppm, .psd, .psp, .raw, +.sgi, .tga and .tif .hdr files. +Formats supported for saving include .bmp, .dds, .h, .jpg, .pal, .pbm, .pcx, +.hdr, .pgm,.png, .ppm, .raw, .sgi, .tga and .tif. + +DevIL currently supports the following APIs for display: OpenGL, Windows GDI, +SDL, DirectX and Allegro.
