A utility tools for copying data between image files and memory.

• imgcopy: Copies a specified image file to the clipboard.
• imgfile: Writes an image in the clipboard to a specified file.

• macOS 14.2.1 or later
• Xcode 15.2 or later
• Swift 5.9.0 or later

These tools are not distributed, so you need to build them and copy them into a directory on your PATH to use them.

You can build them by running the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/mike-neck/imgcopy.git
cd imgcopy
make build
make pick

After running these commands, the following two binaries are created:

build/bin/imgfile
build/bin/imgcopy

You can then copy these into a directory on your PATH to use them.

This command copies an image file to the clipboard.

imgcopy /path/to/img.png

This command saves an image in the clipboard to a file.

imgfile /path/to/new-image.png
