Description

A simple, pure Haskell PNG loader. Currently supports 24bit RGB(A) images with no interlacing. Also lacks support for color indexed (paletted) images.

The image is stored in a StorableArray for compatibility with OpenGL (the array supports getting Ptr Word8 to the image data using withStorableArray function).
