    OpenStego description

    A program/library for embedding data/messages into images (also known as steganography in security parlance).

    v Currently, it is written in Java, and supports only 24 bpp images.

    Usage:

    For GUI:

    java -jar < path >/openstego.jar

    For command line interface:

    java -jar < path >/openstego.jar -embed [options] < data_file > < img_file > OR java -jar < path >/openstego.jar -extract [options] < img_file > < output_folder >

    For '-embed' command, OpenStego will embed the data into the given < img_file > and save the file as PNG after appending '_out' to the file name.

    For '-extract' option, OpenStego will output the extracted data from < img_file > to the given < output_folder >.

    [options] can be specified as '--name=value' pairs. Supported options are:

    maxBitsUsedPerChannel - Max number of bits to use per color channel in
    the image for embedding data. This value can be
    increased at the expense of image quality, in
    case size of image is not able to accommodate
    the data (Default = 3)
    (Only applicable for '-embed' command)

    useCompression - Flag to indicate whether compression should be
    used on the data or not (Default = true)
    (Only applicable for '-embed' command)

    useEncryption - Flag to indicate whether encryption should be
    used on the data or not (Default = false)
    (Only applicable for '-embed' command)

    password - Password to be used for encryption or
    decryption (Default = null)
