+SOIL is a tiny C library used primarily for uploading textures into
+OpenGL. It is based on stb_image version 1.16, the public domain code
+from Sean Barrett. The author has extended it to load TGA and DDS
+files, and to perform common functions needed in loading OpenGL
+textures. SOIL can also be used to save and load images in a variety
+of formats (useful for loading height maps, non-OpenGL applications,
+etc.)
