.SH DESCRIPTION
Libqrencode is a library for encoding data in a QR Code symbol, a kind of 2D
symbology that can be scanned by handy terminals such as a mobile phone with
CCD. The capacity of QR Code is up to 7000 digits or 4000 characters, and has
high robustness.

Qrencode is a utility software using libqrencode to encode string data in
a QR Code and save as a PNG or EPS image.

Each version has a different module configuration or number of modules,
ranging from Version 1 (21 x 21 modules) up to Version 40 (177 x 177 modules).
Each higher version number comprises 4 additional modules per side by default.
See http://www.qrcode.com/en/about/version.html for a detailed version list.
