## Modules

- [Linocut](Linocut.md): Pictures written in code: a sprite as text with a palette, a shape as an outline, and
the derivations a game needs — headings, recolouring, tinting, scaling, flipping,
turning, cutting into frames, strips; and the same read from `.png` and `.pic` files.
- [Linocut.Cache](Linocut.Cache.md): Rasters rendered once and kept on disk, under `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/linocut` or
`~/.cache/linocut`.
- [Linocut.Derive](Linocut.Derive.md): A picture made from another by a short line of operations, so one drawing gives many
views: a recoloured costume, a mirrored heading, a hat laid on.
- [Linocut.Font](Linocut.Font.md): A three-by-five pixel font for names, numbers and notes drawn onto a picture.
- [Linocut.Frames](Linocut.Frames.md): Frames of one animation, lined up and written as a `.pic`.
- [Linocut.Palette](Linocut.Palette.md): Colour specifications and the named colours a picture may use.
- [Linocut.Pic](Linocut.Pic.md): A picture kept in a file: a palette, a blank line, and the picture.
- [Linocut.Png](Linocut.Png.md): Reads a PNG into a `FrenchCurve.Raster`.
- [Linocut.Pose](Linocut.Pose.md): A figure's joints, and the OpenPose skeleton a ControlNet reads them as.
- [Linocut.Preview](Linocut.Preview.md): Looking at rasters: on a sheet, in a terminal, or as a PNG.
- [Linocut.Quantise](Linocut.Quantise.md): A picture reduced to a small palette.
- [Linocut.Resample](Linocut.Resample.md): A picture redrawn at another size.
- [Linocut.Seam](Linocut.Seam.md): A picture made to repeat without a visible join.
- [Linocut.Sheet](Linocut.Sheet.md): A sprite sheet cut into frames.
- [Linocut.Strip](Linocut.Strip.md): An animation: frames shown in turn at a rate, looping.

## Mix Tasks

- [mix linocut.import](Mix.Tasks.Linocut.Import.md): Read an image, reduce it to a pixel-art palette, and write it as a `.pic`.
- [mix linocut.join](Mix.Tasks.Linocut.Join.md): Read several pictures of the same subject, clear their backgrounds, line them up on one
canvas and write them as the frames of one `.pic`.
- [mix linocut.pose](Mix.Tasks.Linocut.Pose.md): Draw a cycle of poses as OpenPose skeletons, one PNG a frame, for a ControlNet to draw a
character into.
- [mix linocut.sheet](Mix.Tasks.Linocut.Sheet.md): Read a sprite sheet, clear its background, cut it into frames and write them as one
`.pic` with the frames separated by `---`.
- [mix linocut.view](Mix.Tasks.Linocut.View.md): Draw pictures in this terminal: an Elixir script whose last expression is a
`FrenchCurve.Raster`, a list of them, or a `Linocut.Strip`; a `.png` or `.pic` file;
or a directory, every `.png` and `.pic` in it on one sheet in name order.
