+README for libpng version 1.6.39
+================================
+
+See the note about version numbers near the top of png.h.
+See INSTALL for instructions on how to install libpng.
+
+Libpng comes in several distribution formats.  Get libpng-*.tar.gz or
+libpng-*.tar.xz if you want UNIX-style line endings in the text files,
+or lpng*.7z or lpng*.zip if you want DOS-style line endings.
+
+Version 0.89 was the first official release of libpng.  Don't let the
+fact that it's the first release fool you.  The libpng library has been
+in extensive use and testing since mid-1995.  By late 1997 it had
+finally gotten to the stage where there hadn't been significant
+changes to the API in some time, and people have a bad feeling about
+libraries with versions < 1.0.  Version 1.0.0 was released in
+March 1998.
+
+****
+Note that some of the changes to the png_info structure render this
+version of the library binary incompatible with libpng-0.89 or
+earlier versions if you are using a shared library.  The type of the
+"filler" parameter for png_set_filler() has changed from png_byte to
+png_uint_32, which will affect shared-library applications that use
+this function.
+
+To avoid problems with changes to the internals of the png info_struct,
+new APIs have been made available in 0.95 to avoid direct application
+access to info_ptr.  These functions are the png_set_<chunk> and
+png_get_<chunk> functions.  These functions should be used when
+accessing/storing the info_struct data, rather than manipulating it
+directly, to avoid such problems in the future.
+
+It is important to note that the APIs did not make current programs
+that access the info struct directly incompatible with the new
+library, through libpng-1.2.x.  In libpng-1.4.x, which was meant to
+be a transitional release, members of the png_struct and the
+info_struct can still be accessed, but the compiler will issue a
+warning about deprecated usage.  Since libpng-1.5.0, direct access
+to these structs is not allowed, and the definitions of the structs
+reside in private pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h header files that are not
+accessible to applications.  It is strongly suggested that new
+programs use the new APIs (as shown in example.c and pngtest.c), and
+older programs be converted to the new format, to facilitate upgrades
+in the future.
+****
+
+Additions since 0.90 include the ability to compile libpng as a
+Windows DLL, and new APIs for accessing data in the info struct.
+Experimental functions include the ability to set weighting and cost
+factors for row filter selection, direct reads of integers from buffers
+on big-endian processors that support misaligned data access, faster
+methods of doing alpha composition, and more accurate 16->8 bit color
+conversion.
+
+The additions since 0.89 include the ability to read from a PNG stream
+which has had some (or all) of the signature bytes read by the calling
+application.  This also allows the reading of embedded PNG streams that
+do not have the PNG file signature.  As well, it is now possible to set
+the library action on the detection of chunk CRC errors.  It is possible
+to set different actions based on whether the CRC error occurred in a
+critical or an ancillary chunk.
+
+For a detailed description on using libpng, read libpng-manual.txt.
+For examples of libpng in a program, see example.c and pngtest.c.  For
+usage information and restrictions (what little they are) on libpng,
+see png.h.  For a description on using zlib (the compression library
+used by libpng) and zlib's restrictions, see zlib.h
+
+I have included a general makefile, as well as several machine and
+compiler specific ones, but you may have to modify one for your own
+needs.
+
+You should use zlib 1.0.4 or later to run this, but it MAY work with
+versions as old as zlib 0.95.  Even so, there are bugs in older zlib
+versions which can cause the output of invalid compression streams for
+some images.
+
+You should also note that zlib is a compression library that is useful
+for more things than just PNG files.  You can use zlib as a drop-in
+replacement for fread() and fwrite(), if you are so inclined.
+
+zlib should be available at the same place that libpng is, or at
+https://zlib.net.
+
+You may also want a copy of the PNG specification.  It is available
+as an RFC, a W3C Recommendation, and an ISO/IEC Standard.  You can find
+these at http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngdocs.html .
+
+This code is currently being archived at libpng.sourceforge.io in the
+[DOWNLOAD] area, and at http://libpng.download/src .
+
+This release, based in a large way on Glenn's, Guy's and Andreas'
+earlier work, was created and will be supported by myself and the PNG
+development group.
