Image::...ol::Exif(3)
β¨ NAME β¨
Image::...ol::Exif β okay bestie, this is the whole entire manual page for it (it's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, iykyk) and it's here to read EXIF/TIFF meta information. That's the vibe. That's the assignment. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
So the way this works is: this module is required by Image::ExifTool. Like, it doesn't do its own thing solo β it's a supporting cast member, a bestie in the group chat. Image::ExifTool pulls it in, periodt.
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
This module contains the routines that Image::ExifTool needs for processing EXIF and TIFF meta information. That's literally it, no cap β it's the machinery behind the scenes so your pics can spill their secrets. π₯
