Francis Rogers <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: PNGmask
System name: pmask
Type: non-GNU

Description:
My project is a steganography program known as PNGmask that hides data in PNG 
images. It works by appending everything from standard input to the end of the 
image, preceded by a special token. When extracting the data, it looks for the 
token and then prints everything following it to standard output. It also has a 
switch to remove the data from the image. I plan to eventually extend the 
software to work with other image formats too. I am already working on code to 
embed it in JPEGs. The images display fine in most major browsers, including 
Mozilla, Internet Explorer, and Netscape. The image\'s quality and contents are 
also left unchanged. The whole thing is written in C using only the standard 
library, and is GPL\'d.

Although the software is in a VERY early stage of development, it currently 
works. The current but messy source for the software is available at 
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/franny644/pngmask.tar.gz . 

NOTE: I have not added GPL notices to the source yet, but I will do it as soon 
as I can.

Other Software Required:
PNGmask only needs a standard C library and a shell with I/O redirection to run.
