pngpaste

Paste PNG into files, much like pbpaste does for text.

However instead of pngpaste > thefile.png, it's pngpaste thefile.png, so one does not accidentally barf binary into the console.

You can also use the single character '-' instead of filename to redirect output to stdout (useful to pipe to other cli commands).

For example, to inverse image with ImageMagick :

pngpaste - | convert -negate png:- inversed_image.png
