I use xz for just about everything, for example .tar.xz archive files.
If you have some extra time, try running xz with the -9 and -e options, which basically means "compress as hard as you possibly can". Very impressive results, far better than gz and better than bz2 also.
Damn. ChatGPT totally NAILED IT. That respose is completely accurate in all respects, to the best of my knowledge. Very impressive.
You can also start GIMP, included in Easy OS, and in the menus choose File --> Create --> Screenshot and follow the instructions.
pp4mnklinux, we all help each other here, that's why it works so great! Sometimes I take time to post something to help someone else. That day, they benefit. Another day, someone will take time to post something to help me. That day, I benefit. What a beautiful system, isn't it?
pp4mnklinux, see my post about quick-and-easy (with no extra software needed!) batch conversion of WEBP files to JPG or PNG files, here:
I didn't know just trying to run the program would give a list of missing dependencies. Very nice!
"dpkg -I filename.deb" lists them all too though, and dpkg is already built into Easy. So it's another option.
Thanks for the info, going to keep trying some stuff.

I am taking up QV development again. That uses the Void package repository, which is quite large.
Will post about it soon.
Awesome, that sounds like it has potential! Thanks Barry!
