Software for concealing information (text, image) in an image.

📚 Requirements :

• Python 3 with Tkinter

• Python Imaging Library (PIL)

If you don’t have pip (a very useful tool), install it using :

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip

With pip installed, install the required development packages:

$ sudo apt-get install python-dev libjpeg-dev libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev

Once you install these packages, we have to symlink the three image libraries into /usr/lib. Wait, now what is “symlink”? A symlink, which is short for symbolic link, is a special type of file that contains a reference to another file or directory. The reference is in the form of an absolute or relative path and it affects path-name resolution. To do that, type in the following commands on the terminal :

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/`uname -i`-linux-gnu/libfreetype.so /usr/lib/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/`uname -i`-linux-gnu/libjpeg.so /usr/lib/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/`uname -i`-linux-gnu/libz.so /usr/lib/

Now we are ready to install PIL. Type the following :

$ sudo pip install pil

To install Pillow (recommended), type the following :

$ sudo pip install Pillow
