Webp screenshots

Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

Webp screenshots

Post by proicop »

Can we get a webp image format support for the `game.take_screenshot` function? Webp offers in general better compression than the png/jpeg alternatives for both lossy and lossless images.

I take .bmp screenshots and convert them to whatever I want in a background process watching for new snaps. Works great, and the devs don't have to implement an api with every image-processing option and format everybody could ever want because that work's already been done.
