[Feature Request]: please make a screenshot in *.PNG format by default; rather than *.PCX

Feature Type

Quality of Life

Describe

*.PCX is difficult to view on Windows; I had to install specific software such as GIMP.

I would prefer a format that could be opened by all software, and preserve text quality; therefore PNG.

[AJenbo]

its already on the roadmap

[Tully-B]

I tried IMG_SavePNG, it seems fine for this purpose, but it generates larger files due to not being indexed and it also requires SDL2 as a dependency.

[AJenbo]

not using the most optimal compression is ok imo. Does it not work with SDL1?

[StephenCWills]

The function is missing in the SDL1 version of SDL_image. That's why I gave up on this a while back.

[Technologov]

it can be done via libpng.
