This can redu= ce the size of the image by a great factor (x10 is not unusual), and is a= lso a more convenient format than PPM. Currently, it dumps in PNG by chec= king if the path ends with ".png", we may want to have a seperate option = for that instead, You will need a separate option for this, if you add fd:name parsing, since name won't necessarily have a .png suffix (I guess libvirt could use getfd to name an fd with a .png suffix, but that seems weird). --=20 Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --------------enig1CD1CDF50514FEDDC53600DD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJPXhl0AAoJEKeha0olJ0NqCQAH/iMvhc2nSbkslkhY0Bqq8Aui msZucGwo8wOLEthftyaL4j1WrHIzTiQJ+cM2DRJSsYRa3ciG/ybgOfzDhjmPiE0E 78AgacK2CC35BHQhSZr9EqQrxV7Bh8sntmnGSzVcMi+kaLlWNVBMr7y86LAX5nIF q04+aH/pmEDI2ai0qUKRXFbJJKih8Geny4/XfkYw5l9P69y5oQP1Qo4CVVFaoHy+ Xw5RvAjfKu7AnblkvhIkUn3nnP3AMdahrF8/yiOP25zM0F7RqOmVv/CswlUoBBOO VgRMlhUuUrUlX5o7SOml5d4KrXJLl3ym3gsVEv7NkSHwPi8aeVEi96RrMSFUoWY= =2/2T -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig1CD1CDF50514FEDDC53600DD--
