+Developer's Image Library (DevIL) is a programmer's library to develop 
+applications with very powerful image loading capabilities, yet is easy 
+for a developer to learn and use. 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 files.
+
+Formats supported for saving include .bmp, .dds, .h, .jpg, .pal, .pbm, 
+.pcx, .pgm,.png, .ppm, .raw, .sgi, .tga and .tif.
+
+DevIL currently supports the following APIs for display: OpenGL, Windows GDI, 
+SDL, DirectX and Allegro. Compilers that can compile DevIL or use it 
+include Djgpp, MSVC++, Linux gcc, Delphi, Visual Basic, Power Basic and 
+Dev-C++.
